Chicago is easily the most overrated city I've ever spent time in. For some reason it gets a free pass for it's terrible weather. That constant damp freezing wind in the winter makes it feel like Winnipeg on a bad day.

The violence and crime is off the charts.

It's food scene is so overrated it boggles my mind. No street food of any quality at all, and it's high end dining pales in comparison to any other major North American city that I've ate in.

Oh, and how that noisy, dirty elevated train system is somehow considered a feature is beyond baffling. What a horrible eye sore.
