I live in Chi-town as of now. Born and raised. I am looking to move to a mid-sized city( 400,000 to 1,000,000 total) or a nice suburb outside of a mid-sized city.
Can anyone list a few just to help me get my brainstorm process going.

Chi is nice but I am tired of this place.\\
What are you looking for in this particular place?, That would be the first question I'll ask...
Affordable housing, low crime, possibly a town with a fishing lake and bike trails. I do not mind living in a small town as long as it is near a major city.

What are your priorities for the place you move to? Off the top of my head, I'd recommend suburban NYC--Fairfield County CT has all amenities of any mid-size city suburb with much smaller-town feelings and vibes. Great quality of life, but cost is way up there.
Affordable is a top priority. Living in the "popular' cities is just a waste of money. I do not care how many things there are to do in the major cities, i'll never do everything anyway. As long as I live outside of a major city and it's affordable that's good enough. It would be nice to live outside of NYC but it's not going to be cheap.
