Many families in Chicago have been there for generations, but there will be plenty of brand new faces just like you.

Starting a new life and moving to Chicago will give you many new opportunities for finding a job, selecting a new apartment or home and building new relationships with the people in the city. If you have moved from a smaller town or city, you will be amazed at the opportunities that await you.

There are many rich traditions in Chicago. The Taste of Chicago Festival is held in Grand Park each year. More than 65 area restaurants participate. Huge crowds gather to enjoy some of the best cuisine the United States has to offer. Among other fabulous traditions, Chicago dyes the Chicago River green each St. Patrick’s Day.

These traditions are just a part of the lifestyle in Chicago. Music and food are important parts of this lifestyle. There are many farmers’ markets where you can shop as well as socialize. Chicago is large enough to draw some of the biggest names in music to their concert venues. Many Chicago apartments are located very close to the music action.

The city is also filled with wonderful nightspots where local musicians perform and big names in jazz and blues are known to make an appearance. One such nightspot is Buddy Guy’s Legends club.
