Survey of best states to live places Illinois near bottom – Center Square

Researcher Jamie Seale said Illinois placed 48th in the ranking, ahead of only New Jersey and New York. “Illinois has pretty high taxes and when people respond to our questions about what makes a state desirable, it’s low cost-of-living and low taxes, and so they are going to maybe prefer a state like Florida or Texas,” said Seale.  Asked about the top cities in the country, Chicago placed 5th from the bottom ahead of only Riverside, California; Cleveland; Philadelphia; and Detroit.

Wow, that’s some great company to be in. Chicago and Illinois are crime ridden shitholes owned by the democrats. If you live there, you are a subservient slave content with your own subjugation. Anything else is just an excuse.
