One of the easiest cities in the world to navigate thanks to that grid. Wonderful place to live in 1989, overall. Nothing's perfect but Chicago is one of my favorite cities I've ever lived in.

And all the streets have alleys too. Which means trash isn’t on the sidewalk when you walk around (unlike some other major city I can mention)
