Now stop this debate and move on to something sensible already.

Maybe he hasn't been to the near north side in a while. W/in five years Cabrini Green will be replaced by condos. It's so gentrified there are very few minorities left. People still flee to the burbs, though.
Not me though. Never. I could understand living in the burbs of another city. Some are quite scenic and offer many opportunites for outdoor activities, etc. Not the Chicago burbs. No hills. Shitty traffic. Overpriced farmland.
