In IL (not chicago area) you can easily find a decent house for under $200k in a town you’d actually want to live in. I guess that’s the one upshot to so many people fleeing the state for the past 20 years. Before you laugh at me, the counties with the hugest reduction in population over the past decade are all within an hour of chicago. The more conservative parts of the state have faired better.
A big city's inherent nature is to turn to shit over broken dreams. Smaller, more rural, is much better
