Land of Lincoln...the prairie state...corn, soybeans, and pumpkins. Chicago-inclusive, but there's a lot more to Illinois than just the Windy City.
Be respectful and civil. No racism/bigotry/hateful speech.

One thing people never count on is all the stuff your taxes pay for, that you end up paying for in other ways. Things like trash collection, sewer, water, library services, snow plows, etc. You move away and either you pay yourself or you do without.
Wait, Where are you living in Illinois that you don't have to pay for those things? I have to pay separately for all those services except snow plow.
some have item taxes to like your television and car and such.
