Chicago is NOT a dangerous city. I have lived here for close to twenty years and I have never once been so much as threatened. Like any other big city anywhere in the world, it pays to use common sense. Don't walk around with cash hanging out of your pockets or more expensive camera equipment than you can use and safely protect. Keep your wallet (and passport) in an inside pocket or your purse looped around your shoulder. Keep your eyes open. Don't go to neighborhoods you know nothing about without checking with friends (or your hotel) first. There are neighborhoods I have never been to and have no intention of ever visiting, armed or not! Just remember, Al Capone, Jake McGurn, Bugs Moran, John Dillinger, and all the others are dead. And they never bothered tourists anyway!
