      Maybe! I’ve been a few times and it was fine, but you don’t really get a sense of a place staying a weekend.

      I think Chicago you can get by without owning a car? That’s one of my top priorities

        You can!*

        Public transit in Chicago is some of the better public transit I’ve used. I’ve stayed for weeks on end without ever needing a car. Though taxis/Uber sometimes does a little of the heavy lifting there.

        *Very much dependent on where in Chicago you live/stay and where you want to go. Downtown is fantastic, Southside and most of the suburbs are meh. You might need a car out there.
