Just curious to see where most Chicago posters come from. Were you born in Chicagoland or did you move here? What does your neck of the woods offer that others don't? Share your hidden gems!

I don't believe we have any White people in this forum (unless from Bridgeport) that grew up in Chicago. Even if they live there now.

Bridgeport and Canaryville will be the best neighborhood for me to meet White women. Saw this White blonde women a couple times, that looks/talks like a softie, and then 1 day got a look at the back of her neck, a king's crown tattoo.

Ah, this wasn't for the poll, but to the question in the post: "Were you born in Chicagoland or did you move here?"

Born and raised in Detroit. Spent 16 years in Phoenix, AZ. Lived in Humboldt Park for 11 years now.
I've heard people refer to HP as the West Side and as the Northwest Side. I think of it as West Side.
