  • Especially during wintertime the weather in Chicago can get really nasty. Winter storms from Canada and the Great Lakes (so-called Lake Effect Snow) might bring really heavy snowfall and far-below zero temperatures. Make sure to bring some warm clothes. On such a winter day tourists might have a hard time if they want to visit some of Chicago's numerous attractions. Imagine standing on Sears Tower's sky deck and not seeing anything because the skyscraper is completely surrounded by thick clouds... That's what's happened to me...

  • I felt pretty safe in Chicago. It occured to be a clean city and I didn't mind to walk around at night. Sure, there are not so good areas in different parts of the city. But my overall impression was positive. Just keep out of South Chicago. That is where most of the worse neighborhoods are located.
