This Illinois County Is Losing People Faster Than Anywhere in the U.S.

1. And my guess is..

Those who own the majority of the land in the area will be howling - no cut for them, no benefit for them.

I am tired of the being cheaper than IL. No such thing as a free lunch. When we were looking for a new home, I did the math. WI property taxes were pretty much the same as IL. Just different terms for the variables used in the calculation. Need a service call in WI, pay sales tax. But to me the biggest thing to look at is this - IF you need assistance, will it be there? Your child need reduced/no cost lunch - well don't plan on it Waukesha WI as "we don't want kids to get spoiled". I could go on and on.

Kudos to Pritzker. Been a long time since we had a governor who wasn't just trying to benefit himself and/or other rich folks. I'm sure investors will make money which is okay AS LONG as the project also benefits the average resident in the area.

Unfortunately, parts of IL are too much like AL, MS etc. Thankfully we have Chicago.
