Koreans' jaw dropped with the stunning aesthetics of Chicago
>>225040538It bothers me how he is driving
>>225040538I've heard it's basically a worse New York
>>225040538Doesnt korea have skyscrapers too?Though americas tye only country that still has them back when they weren't still msde entirely out of glass.
>>225041395Korea doesn't have this type of building
>>225041470
crumb
>>225040705It is but that still makes it better than 90% of cities here
>non-Americans only have giant glass dildos for skyscrapersYet another L for irrelevant countries.
>>225040705It's New York but livable>doesn't have the status of New York which keeps all the foreign money failsons and daddy's money faildaughters away>less yuppies means less yuppie-adjacent businesses (hipster cafes, "popup" clothing stores, etc.)>most of the country thinks the city is a warzone of gang violence when the bad areas are basically entirely confined to the southside>it gets pretty cold in the winter with the wind coming in off the lake which filters southerners and Californians from moving there>similar to the first point, nobody sees Chicago as a city you move to in order to "make it big" like NY or LA
>>225040538This is why it's so dangerous to outsiders, you go there and think wow beautiful rich and clean, nothing bad can happen here, let me go check out a blacker area or drive around at randomAnd WHAM the horde makes you a statistic
>>225041944>New York but livablechicago is a midwestern city that happens to be really, really big. so it has things like mass transit and skyscrapers, but this does not translate to world-class culture.the most cringe thing about chicago is the endless cycle of midwestern college grads from small towns who weren't good enough or adventurous enough for coastal cities but wanted to have a big city experience for a few years before they inevitably settle down in a suburb or back home. this demographic is dominant in the most trendy neighborhoods. if you meet people in their 20s or 30s, you'll more than likely discover they are from michigan, or wisconsin, or iowa. the "real" chicagoan is a mythical person, who in reality lives in the suburbs or one of the outer neighborhoods of the city limits where transplants don't go.
>>225042110>endless cycle of midwestern college grads from small towns who weren't good enough or adventurous enough for coastal cities but wanted to have a big city experience for a few years before they inevitably settle down in a suburb or back homeThis will hopefully be me in a couple of months
>>225042110>Good enough for coastal citiesI promise you this sounded less unintentionally humorous in your head This is perhaps the most Springfield, Massachusetts lesbian thing anyone has ever written on 4chan
>>225042110Imagine you are from a midwest and looking for a relatively affordable nice city to live in and then some autistic retard comes in online and psycho-analyzes your entire life that turns doing something completely reasonable into some failure fan faction rambling about the "coastal cities" and "elite culture"America is truly an insane asylum
>>225042225it becomes necessary to psycho-analyze them when living in the city gives them an ego
>>225042225my family is from new york and they look down on every other american city, especially if it’s not on the coasts. they actually hold a lot of respect for chicago and recognize it for its contributions to business and culture, but they know it will never be in the same conversation as new york
>>225042325So its like some kind of revenge plot? I dont get it>>225042327But isnt like half of New York on medicaid foodtampts etc? Like half the city is ultra poor? Then even among the remaining wealthy most are just seem like Jews who lived in some bumfuck village in Russia before going in the USA
>>225042440when people talk about new york, they’re really talking about manhattan, and manhattan is rich as fuck. not to mention the suburbs are among the most elite and old money concentrated in the entire nation.
>>225042554OK well from the outside its just niggas and jews and a couple annoying podcasters online
>>225042225>let me tell you about your countryThe term “coastal elite” exists for a reason. The east coast has been the seat of power and wealth in America since before America even formally existed as a country. Every Ivy League university exists on the east coast, and for good reason (cue seething flyovers claiming how much smarter they are than those darned college educated liberals). The central United States exists purely to provide food for the majority of the population and warm bodies for the military.>>225042440Jesus Christ I wish I’d read this first before I wasted my time writing the above reply. You truly have no idea what you’re talking about. Does your image of New York come from 1980s crime movies?
Seoul is pretty good for foreigners perspective. Distance lends enchantment to the view

I knew a jewish bum from Chicago. Dude wouldn't shut up about how much better Chicago was.
>>225042607Look from the outside your country seems like some insane asylum where people with massive inferiority complexes go online and start talking about how they are better lol The rest of the world does not work this way because if you are wealthy, etc you dont need to prove anything ONLINE. In fact, rambling online, if I had to autistically categorize everything, so online stuff is LOW CLASS, it is essentially village gossip, people who overshare things and dont have any emotional self control. It is weird because """elites""" in the rest of the world dont do this. You are never going to find a Swiss guy with surgeon parents going back 4 generations talking about how he is "elite">>225042607No im not particularly ( at all) interest in New York but I saw a statistics one and it was so absurd that I remembered it. Like half the city was on the lowest income state aid that is poverty levels. Also the median income was low for a wealthy city outside certain areas in Manhattan
