How much are you paying for rent in Chicago? Say where you live, like Bucktown or nearby streets, what you rent, - like a Studio, and how much you pay on what type of lease!

I saw $1000+ STUDIOS on Apt listings and that cost is just FREAKING ME OUT! I'm thinking man, Chicago is a way expensive place to live!

I'm lucky to be a rent and utility free HOMEBOY now in my Parent's house that I'll inherit in HOT WICKER PARK! All I have to pay is my internet, Netflix, car insurance, gas, and my own food!

Man, Chicago is sufferingly expensive, ... like those groceries at Jewel's!

I pay $1200 for a 1,900 sqrft 2/2 in oldtown. it's a great deal in a two-flat for this neighborhood, which is why i'll never move even though my landlord is a nutjob.

You do not know where they are because you are not from Chicago. Stop pretending.

Sorry, not telling some crazy cross dresser with a 30,000 dollar bike collection the street I live on.

Anyway, if youve never heard of my neighborhood then you havent heard of the street.
