Attention current and former residents of Chicago

[Sethomas]

When my school lets me, I live in Hyde Park. It's the most afluent predominantly black neighborhood in the country, and also has the most bookstores per capita this side of the Mississippi. It's really not that expensive (though I can't pull any numbers out of my head) but it's about a half hour to forty-five minute ride to get downtown. The odd thing about Chicago is that very few businesses cater to insomniacs. If you're downtown at midnight on the weekend, you'll be lucky to find something to do.

Other than that, I love it.
