I personally couldn't live there due to the long, cold winter, but it's an awesome city that is mostly inexpensive and with a great quality of life.
Chicago has been losing people slowly, so a top 10 showing for a list of "moving to cities" is a good thing, when the trend recently has been to lose people. That was my where my comment was directed.
I will say this, I have zero desire to ever move to an "hot, emerging" city. Moving with 10s of thousands of people every month to Austin or Raleigh or whatever is really booming at the moment feels like a nightmare of over-clogged streets that aren't ready for it, long lines because the the amenity scene can't keep up, lacking public transit, constant construction, etc.
Sitting in traffic because the car is the only option would depress and anger me to no end.
Give me a place that's been there, done that, already. Even if it was 100 years ago. A city that has bones to support the fat that comes.
Fast forward to the 2022 list and will bet that Chicago isn't the only Midwest "aberration". The recent rent inequality in cities like Orlando is going to shake up the hierarchy in my opinion given not many can afford the typical $1500-$2200 apartment here on the city's sub-par wages. I'm kind of shocked Atlanta and Raleigh-Durham aren't there.
Wow, Chicago? That’s pretty impressive and I could see Chicago starting to shine more as a place to move this decade. Not surprised about Houston or Phoenix at all. Every time I turn around someone else is moving to one of them.

I believe it’s because housing supply is stating to match the rate of growth as well. Denver will almost seem like a bargain again at this rate.

Good for them. It was staring to get absurd, but now, Denver has calmed down.
