My brother lives a little SW of Chicago, married a local girl and has been out there for almost 20 years. I could certainly ask for some advice but would like to know if she's thinking city living vs 'within 30 min drive to O'Hare' (or Midway). Any other parameters; solo vs roommates, etc would narrow down any advice.

Congrats.

Thanks all. Today was indoctrination so I will offer your leads when I think she is most receptive. She has a room at the home of a college friend for the short term. Looking for a sub let through the summer while she figures it out. My opinion is that she will be flying more than spending time in Chicago, but we will see how it plays out for her.

Currently leaning towards Logan Square, though she has never been there. O'Hare is her base. Roommates would be less expensive, especially if they are also flight attendants. Has her car there. Parking is expensive. Gets sticker for AA parking at airport. Might want to be on the L since traffic from downtown to airport can be brutal.
