The food! The lakefront. Plus it's a great city for taking long walks, which is a favorite pastime of mine.

All of the above...

Chicago is a place that is so beautiful and offers so much that you never get bored. I'll never tire of walking around or shopping downtown, driving LSD, the museums, driving around different neighborhoods and viewing the architechture, staring at Lake Michigan, going to the museums, Garrett's popcorn, good and cheap food. I could go on and on.

It's also a place the you can enjoy on a budget. Talking walks and having lunch after was something I always did when I lived there.

Cost of living. You won't find better for a comparable American city.

The Loop, the Lake, Wrigley, the lack of hills and that it's so easy to navigate whether on foot or by car.
