I visited my sister in Chicago, and I can definitely see the city’s appeal. Blue rivers and lakes, good dining, fantastic architecture. One of my first thoughts was, ‘This city is so !’ You can be sure I’m not talking about politics since Chicago has ranked the most corrupt US city for three years straight.
