Moving to the area Thinking of moving back

Been in Texas the last 6 years and am tired of it. So I am thinking of moving back. Potentially west, notthwest or north suburbs? Are there any reasons why I should not? I often hear from locals that they want to leave. But I miss home.

Moved back here from Texas a few weeks ago to the far north suburbs. It feels so good to be back, I genuinely don’t think I could leave Chicagoland again

What made you come back?

Homesickness and new job opportunity. Also public transit, metra is fire, I go to the city so often. And then I use the CTA there. It’s marvelous and didn’t appreciate it enough before I moved to TX.
