Chicago is extremely underrated. LA doesn't even have a basic transit system, you have to drive everywhere. New York is super dirty and jam packed. Chicago is the best of both worlds.

I am from Sweden and I was there last year as part of a 2,5 month trip around the country! The last 10 days of my trip I visited the windy city Chicago! I swear this was the best trip I´ve ever made and quite honestly I am getting a bit emotional when I am writing this! Love Chicago and I love USA! The day when I left however was a sad day and I hope I can make it back there within a year or so!❤

Chicago is the best to me, from world-class museums and award-winning food and drink to a thriving live music scene, soaring architecture, and miles of waterways and green space, Chicago is a veritable playground to the culturalist. With so much to see and do, planning an itinerary can overwhelm tourists and longtime residents alike

I just came back from Chicago. This was my first time visiting. It is truly impressive how clean and walkable the city is. There are a lot of green spaces, parks, and people walking in groups. Cleaner than Atlanta, GA, for sure. The traffic is rough on the highways, and you have to he watchful of pedestrians walking. Lastly, there is a lot of good food to go around.

Nothing compares to Chicago. Even the winters can be looked as an adventure. Food, people, culture and so much more are hard to beat. This is the greatest City.

The conversation between the Russian host and the Ukrainian neighbors is especially touching. What a difference 3 months makes.

As a Chicago born woman who now resides in the Deep South, I really miss Summertime Chicago. I was home last year visiting my family and drove the Dan Ryan just to see the city rise up like a 3D picture. It’s so beautiful and nothing like it anywhere. Winter I never have to step foot in the city but I love Chicago

I was born and raised in Chicago (not far from the Sox stadium and Solider Field). I now have lived in NYC for over 17 years. After watching this video you’ve made me want to move back home! Great job.

Chicago is the best looking city in the 🇺🇸. I visited there for the first time last year. I was shocked how clean it was. The architect of the building is unmatched. I felt right at home.

Crime and cold winters aside, Chicago, pound for pound is one of the greatest cities to live in America. The positives are many, and its setting is hard to beat. I lived there for thirty years and treasure mostly great memories of this beautiful but enormously underrated metropolis.

That was such a great overview! Really, really informative. And I also liked that it was very balanced, and you didn't just sell it, focusing only on the positives. Was definitely worth watching the whole 28 min. Great job.

Just got back from Chicago. We stayed at Blackstone Hotel. Did not see one bit of garbage on the streets. The park was beautiful and relaxing. We enjoyed our short stay.

What impresses me about Chicago is how clean it is for such a large city. It’s actively kept clean and seems relatively safe as long as you aren’t in south side which is pretty much what all Chicagoans said

I love this city

Proud to be a Chicagoan. Love Chicago and its diverse neighborhoods.

I've lived here for over 20 years and thought you did a great job showcasing our amazing city! 👏

I live in NYC but was pleasantly surprised when I visited Chicago for the first time in 2021. It’s definitely cleaner than NY and I felt completely safe and comfortable in the downtown area compared to other cities in the US I’ve visited. The architecture is beautiful and It’s definitely the closest city in appearance to NYC you would find in America 🇺🇸

We Chicagoans are lucky to have access to such a great city-- problems aside, it truly is an awesome town in which to work, live and play.

I passed through Chicago once and didn't get to see much of it. The day was windy and gloomy. It was a bit cold even for late summer/early fall. I'm from South Texas and prefer the warmer weather. But this video gave me a good look at the city. I was surprised. I didn't realize how beautiful the place is, with great architecture and lots of things to do and see. It does look cleaner, safer and more manageable than New York. Chicago is still too big, too crowded and too cold for my taste, but I think it is underrated. All the movies seem to take place either in New York or LA. Yet, here is a city that offers the best of both cities.

Chicago is my city, I lived here for 25 years.Chicago is famous mainly for its modern architecture and urban layout. The center of Chicago is called the Loop because the CTA railway line runs around it. The most famous is the world's talles skyscraper, the Sears Tower, with 110 floors and a height of 443m. Thank youn for the beautiful video and virtual tour from Chicago, Illinois.

Best City review channel ever. Such good and informative content

I've lived here my entire life and you made one of the BEST and most COMPLETE videos of Chicago I've ever seen. You managed to nail being both brief and detailed all in one. WONDERFUL JOB.

My kind of town. I had the good fortune living in a 34th floor lakefront condo overlooking the lake and downtown for a few years. I was able to watch them put lights in Wrigley Field from the dining room. Just being home was an exciting daily show.

Very nice and vibrant city . I visited Chicago and felt very welcomed .greetings from Spain

I’m from Alabama, have lived in Chicago for 3 years now, I realized I need to get out more. I loved this video!

I really appreciate how you took the time to get as much actual historic and well known places and what it has to offer

going to chicago for marathon this weekend, doing planning now, this is super helpful, thank you!

Love ur videos, they are very informative with a touch of real people who live there. As a non american i love ur U.S state videos aswell as the U.S city videos! Keep em coming!! 👍☺️☺️

Great video! As a lifelong Chicagoan, it makes me proud of my city. I’m so happy I was able to share some of your Chicago experience while you were here.

I love Chicago! The way I describe it is that if looks and feels like a Northeastern city but still has Midwestern friendliness/hospitality!

Great video I was in Chicago in July of 22. The people are so friendly!

Thanks for sharing this great video. Beautiful city. I need to explore it next year. Thanks again

Love Chicago! Summers are great! Winters are cold but a white Christmas is classic! Food and service! Foged Aboud it! Culture and diverse neighborhoods also Amazing! Salute’ from a proud Chicagoan-Italian 💪🏻🇮🇹

I loved seeing the video from the first second to the last. Greetings from Mozambique 🇲🇿, a Portuguese speaking country in Africa

Thanks for your video. Last year when i was about to visit Chicago then i saw your video to decide which places i should visit. Your video helped me narrow down few places to visit in a single day.

I love Chicago, no need for a car. As for the Winter it is my favourite season so no problem with that part of it. Thank you for the video brought back many memories. All the best.

Love this city! It is a cleaner, nicer, cheaper and friendlier version of New York. Where else can you leave your office and be at the beach in ten minutes? Winters can be tough, but summers here are awesome! Beautiful parks are available in every neighborhood. The taxes are high, but housing is cheaper than other large cities. The crime is primarily in a few specific neighborhoods, and I always feel safe in mine. Great place to live.

I'm so happy Chicago picked me 3 years ago. I love the city, energy, diversity, welcoming people and overall it is a beautiful place.

Thank you for putting this wonderful video together! It is very helpful and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you.

I love Chicago very much. I’ve lived permanently here since 2015. You did a very nice video about this city.❤️❤️❤️

Spent 6 months downtown. What a beautiful city. Totally mesmerizing.

As someone that grew up in one of the ‘no go’ zones, I will say there are some amazing restaurants and shops in those areas too! ... I miss my city 🙌🏽

hi thanks for the best food review for all of us and glad that you always bring something new and diffferent you are the motivation for new youtubers like me :)

Glad to be back in NYC area, but also glad to have spent 12 great years in Chicago. Great town.

Living in Chicago since 2016, from South America. This is a nice place to stay ❤️

Chicago has it all, and housing 1/3 the price as the other two world class city's in the US. If I were young again looking to start my young career, seeking a real city lifestyle, or were an artist. Chicago at the top of that list. One of the very best city's in North America.

This is a great video sir. You did an awesome job! Chicago is one my favorite American cities to visit...besides DC. Chi-town has such a beautiful skyline and downtown! We loved it when we did the architecture tour. Just nice! If it were 5 hours more south, with better weather...I'd live there!

This was such a good and thorough video. Great job! Thanks!

Thanks to you I'm learning about cities,states & places from your videos in your unique presentation.I'm Loving it!

I am from Chicago . Love it . Missed Chicago now in Texas. You are right , Chicago is so clean .

I love this video! There are so many sights I never get sick of looking at even though I've lived in Chicago for most of my adult life.

I love Chicago and Houston cities, hope one day to visit these great scenaries

Your videos are so much better than most American Travel KZfaqrs! Insightful observations with non of the unneeded flashy editing.

OMG!!! I'm randomly watching this at 4:30am and realize that you came on my boat tour... LOL... I hope you enjoyed it. BTW, the Chicago Water Tower is 1869. Remember, don't just look forward, look up and appreciate the built up environment around you. We're 230 sq mi, so I'm glad you got out of downtown, but you have much more ground to cover. I look forward to future Chicago neighborhood vids.

Gee...for a foreigner....you did one of the BEST surveys of Chicago I've ever seen. Great job! OUTSTANDING job!

Visited an old friend of mine in Chicago last year and I must say it is a beautiful city! I'm from San Francisco so I can relate to the parking, traffic, car jackings etc. but Chicago really seems like one of the metro cities where you can get more bang for your buck. Not to mention the people are friendly too. I would defiantly visit again... but probably in the spring or summer lol

Dude, you do a great job with your content. This was very informative and well done. Thank you. Spasibo!

Another great documentary video on Chicago, Slava. I enjoyed watching it and learning a bit more about Chicago. Hope to be able to visit the city one day.

I love the city of Chicago, as someone who lives in Miami, Fl. I visit for a couple weeks a year and always enjoy it.

Thanks for telling something about Chicago, an interesting and beautiful city.!

Thanks a lot for the beautiful video. I've been wanting to visit Chicago for so long, but could never do so. As soon as I saw the word Chicago, I had to watch it. THANK YOU 🙏

Thanks for pointing out the diverse economy of Chicago. That is one of the reasons I decided to move here.

Seriously enjoyed this video, fond memories of beautiful Chicago. Lived n studied close to Lake Michigan. So much to do in the weekend. Lived near the Science n Industry museum.

Вы такой классный)) спасибо за ваш совершенный английский и интересные видео! я и обучаюсь и наслаждаюсь))

Chicago seems pretty great. Amazing city. Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷

I love your channel. Very informative. Great production value so very nice to watch. It would be great if you do an episode on best cities in North Carolina similar to the one you did about Texas. Thanks. Keep up the great work.

I lived in Milwaukee and used to go to Chicago all the time and loved it!!!!!

GREAT JOB PUTTING THIS VIDEO TOGETHER. YOU MADE CHICAGO LOOK VERY BEAUTIFUL. WHICH IT IS. YOU HIT ALL THE POINTS THAT SUM UP CHICAGO. AWESOME JOB.

wow! spectacular scenery. Thanks for covering all the important parts of the city.

I'm from France and i had to go in Chicago, you really convaice me. Thank u a lot of

I'm originally from New York visited in 1995 and it was 😍at first site, how can I not! just as stated in many comments, similar to New York but way much cleaner. This is the only reason why I sacrifice throughout Winter 🥶🤷. Summer's in Chicago are far beyond amazing, truly fun City.

As a resident in Chicago, I'm happy to always still learn about my city. I never get tired of learning.

I'm from Toronto and LOVE Chicago, it feels kind of like my home.

Because of the wind, which can make the place really cold in the winter, Chicago has very good air quality. As far as crime, there are some parts of the city you just want to stay out of. It also has many fantastic restaurants, and many great music clubs.

I live on the Northside in Uptown, You did a great job, seriously great job showing the city

I'm from Chicago. Love Chicago! I feel like I've traveled the world without leaving the city. I love our ethnic enclaves. Much better than melting pots. We have those too but not as many as the ethnic enclaves that i love!

You have one of the most comprehensive videos of a city. I definitely would recommend your channel they will visit New York, Taiwan, Chicago etc. So many helpful information. Bravo

We are very excited and really like your creative ideas, made it enjoyable to watch and keep watching, hope you continue this great idea forever.

Hola goodmorning que belleza de ciudad todo limpio Dios bendiga siempre a Chicago EEUU Illinois algún día voy a conocer

During the summer, Chicago is arguably the best city in the USA. Too many reasons to mention.

LOVE Chicago: we moved 10 months ago and wish we moved years ago!!! Video is great, love it: trully showing spirit of our City!!

Another great video. Informative and well put together.

That was an excellent video. Well done. Thank you for mentioning my White Sox as they are often ignored since the Cubs draw a much larger viewing audience- even having fans all over the country. On the same topic, - you mentioned Soldier field- but didn't mention the professional (American) football team it houses, the Bears (NFL) and the club football (soccer) team the Fire (MSL). Also The United Center houses both the Bulls (NBA) and the Blackhawks (NHL), and of course historic Wrigley Field home of the Cubs (MLB). Chicago also has several minor league teams in various sports. It was great that you included some interviews with actual residents. I'm glad you enjoyed your visit. I hope you can come back and make a 2nd video where you visit all the places above, and maybe some of the music venues- Northerly Island, City Winery, Thalia Hall, Petrillo Music Shell in Grant Park, The Vic, The Riviera, Civic Opera House, Buddy Guy's Legends, The Chicago Theater, Fitzgerald's... etc..

the way you explained and your videography man, my heart melts. You are a genius man. Keep them coming.

As someone from the west coast who is young, you really opened up my eyes on Chicago. It definitely gets a bad wrap but the downtown looks amazing

U just make us happy by your videos thank u and God bless u

Every family have that one person whom will break their financial burden, hope you are the person. Spend less, invest more💰💰

Best city in the world! Fantastic review! Returned from Chi-Town a couple of weeks ago...man, what a city! Love Chicago! ❤️😁 (P.S. please resolve the crime issue, so we can all enjoy)

As someone who’s from and even currently lives in the south side, I honestly must say the south side is not that bad. Bronzeville is actually thEE 2nd most historic African American neighborhood in the country after Harlem in New York. Chicago has the best food, and some of the most gorgeous architectural homes in the city. Englewood actually was at one time the busiest place in Chicago outside of the loop. The SEARS corporation had its flagship store in englewood right on 63rd and Halsted (I believe it was halsted). People should honestly come to the south side, it’s not that bad as the media portrays. There are areas that aren’t the best but it’s not the most dangerous place in America, trust me. What can happen on the south side can happen anywhere in America and the world. Besides that, I think this guy did a great job showing the city, This is world class city, a welcoming city. Come visit and don’t be scared.

I’ve stayed in/ driven through Chicago countless times, grew up in Cleveland, lived in Minneapolis for the last 48 years. My mother’s brother, Colin Middleditch, originally from England, owned a barber shop at 50 E. Oak St called Colin of London, now operated by his stepdaughter. Those winter winds off of the lake can be brutal!!

Amazing information...one of the best tour guide videos ever made .. you seem to love doing this coz without passion..this piece of brilliance wouldnt have been possible...stay blessed...

I ❤ Chicago. Thanks Slava, another great video 🙂.

My hometown! And you included the University of Chicago too, where I went to college.

very nicely done... just love to watch..❤️.... REALLY appreciating ... your effort ....

It's a beautiful city. When I first saw the city, I was so impressed.

Another great and very entertaining presentation. Thank you sir. Chicago rocks!

You did a very nice presentation of the city, I didnt know it was so beautiful now I would like to see it with my eyes.

Chicago is so inviting. nice landscape, convenient place, and hospitable residents. having a good climate, it will be a nice place to live!!

I want to go there, greetings from Australia! :D

Finally back to what you do best - showcasing a city with all its virtues and vices. Very informative and slick. Chicago lives up to its reputation of being the windy city with gusts which you can lean into if not get carried away. Outside of the cold months it's definitely a beautiful city with a lot of green spaces but also enough of concrete to give competition to the big Apple as far as construction goes. Thanks for a wonderful tour.
