Chicago ties with Boston for 10th place in the Wall Street Journal's list of the hottest, hippest cities where recent college grads will flock.

Chicago gets kudos for "great amenities, great nightlife, a spectacular waterfront, great restaurants" and affordable housing, the judging panel
said. The top "youth magnets" were Washington, D.C., and Seattle, which tied for first; New York, Portland, Ore., and Austin, Texas.

Well see the caring college educated hipsters will displace those people and gentrify the neighborhoods.
Sort of a class cleansing.
