Brett Conti hello lm sorry to reading this but lm trying to be RUclipsr and my camera is so weird can you please help me to fix my camera l live in Chicago to the north area susanfashion3@gmail.com
I moved to Chicago from Puerto Rico. It was a huge change from me going from warm beautiful beaches to Windy City. Awesome city & i think Chicago has it all. Yea you hear a lot in the news about the crime but if you go to the dangerous areas & it really isn’t as bad as people say in the news. The media likes to scare people a lot. Every city has crazy people. You just gotta be careful & have common sense
I live in St. Louis and every day there’s 2 cases Chicago gets less beautiful looking forward to move to Chicago looks nice can’t wait to live the fuck out of St. Louis
Being from LA I get the same feels when I traveled to Chicago. I would definitely move there. The food let alone puts it to the top of my list on places to move to.
alex sandoval if anyone is interested there’s this awesome restaurant that makes the most delicious pizza pot pies it’s called the pizza Co Grinder plus that place used to be owned by one of the most notorious Gangsters of Chicago Alcapone there’s also a story on back of the menu which you gotta check out!
Yay Alex I’m from Chicago I moved to Indiana for a job promotion but my friends and I are downtown so much for dinner plays and shopping restaurants it’s not even funny😂 I love my hometown sweet old Chicago ❤️
The summers are very humid in Chicago. But honestly. I was born there over eighty years ago and the city has an energy that never bores you and always leaves you with hope
Exactly, they both have downsides and good things about them that cancel one another out. However I would say I’d warn that Chicago is not the ideal place for work and isn’t necessarily a stable city
The north side is beautiful. Reminds me of Philly but cleaner (much cleaner) and the people are so much more chill. Just like you said about NYC. I love the Manhattan area of NYC, but I have to say Chicago is more picturesque. Love Chicago but only the North side and down town.
Born and Raised in Chicagoland area. Pros: Gorgeous Architecture Museums and Restaurants Galore Highly Cultured Diverse Urban Vibes (fashion, hip hop, etc) Great Food! Pizza and Hot Dogs, Beer Great Sports to do and watch Decent jobs Cons Some People are rude AF especially during nightlife Expensive COLD AF!!! sometimes like -10 in Winter horrible snow and ice and wind Crowded not as much as NYC Crime and homicide has tripled lots of shootings (depending on area) High Taxes Corrupt Politicians Sweet Home Chicago 😀🌃🏙
Christina Mancuso Me too, I was raised in the area, unfortunately as a child the only times I ended up going to the city was to go to the to visit my grandmother in the hospital, not the most pleasant memories 😅
Born & raised in Chicago, & am going to move back once I have my $$$$ right!!!!! Rogers Park is great!!!!! DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT MOVING TO NEW Orleans, where I am now. IT SUCKS, & today, 7/10 it has flooding AGAIN!!!!! Check weather, & see for yourself!!!!!
Thanks for stopping by at Chicago! For someone who lives here its cool to see how other people react to it! A lot of people think Chicago is bad but i don't think its all bad, sure there's stuff to work on but, its a wonderful city
Nothing beats midwest hospitality! 😊 Chicago is fantastic! I grew up just a couple of hours from there. So beautiful and clean. The only down side is the crime. It's very high.
Jennifer Cook-Spillers Crime is mostly in a few neighborhoods that nobody goes to anyway. Certainly no tourist will ever go to the Englewood neighborhood.
Bruh you should definitely never swim in the Chicago river no matter how nice it looks. They used to dump leftover meat and blood from the slaughterhouses across the entire city for almost a hundred years not to mention sewage and trash as well. Stick to Lake Michigan
@@juniordunkley5298 Well most in the US would not live in Europe. Once you have seen all the historical sites, there is nothing else of interest. I would take Chicago and NYC any day.
Junior Dunkley More people European people move to America than Americans do with Europe. It’s a given that America is more popular, although Europe is also very great.
My mom wants us to move to Chicago. It's going to be a big change. A new school. Making new friends. A new house. I don't it might be different from where I live now.
Haha That's the O'Hare airport for you. They did that to me twice (Delay the flight, and then go back to original departure). Small price to pay for such an awesome city though!
if anyone is interested there’s this awesome restaurant that makes the most delicious pizza pot pies it’s called the pizza Co Grinder plus that place used to be owned by one of the most notorious Gangsters of Chicago Alcapone there’s also a story on back of the menu which you gotta check out!
I’m from East Rogers Park. when I was in the navy stationed in Japan all I could think about was getting back. Ive back ten years now, and all I think about is leaving again lol. I’m moving to Vegas later this year. I’ll miss Chicago again when I’m gone. It’s a vicious cycle.
love everything about your video except for the fact that coming from NY you actually like that deep dish (marinara sauce casserole) "pizza". I gagged on the first bite from that same "infamous" uno's & gave away the rest to a homeless person....UGH! But everything else I love the city and I plan on moving there in the summer if all goes well with the job opportunity. Thanks for the video...
Short video but I appreciate your positive review of Chicago. Chicago does have a similar feel as NYC, when I visited Manhattan it felt very much like Chicago's loop, River North and the Northside. Some areas like GreenwichVillage felt like Wicker Park and Bucktown. Queens felt like the Southside to me and the Bronx was like the West Side of Chicago. There are key differences between the cities and when you add all the other Boroughs; NYC is much larger than Chicago. I didnt visit Brooklyn or Staten Island, I spent most of my time visiting historical sites in Manhattan. New York Street food is unique to New York City and delicious. The history is unmatched by any other city and I think every American should visit NYC at least once, it is in my mind the real Capitol of the U.S. it's Americas largest and most important city. That being said I still prefer Chicago. Mainly because its my home city, I'm a native of Chicago and everything I need is here and the layout of the city makes sense to me. For night life I like to do pub crawls and I like to stay in one neighborhood the entire night. 3rd Avenue midtown really isnt on the same level of Wicker Park when it comes to a pub district. Even Old Town, Lincoln Park and Lakeview have better stretches of pub districts. I like eating Mexican food after drinking all night, in Chicago there are great Mexican restaurants open 24/7 in just about every part of the city. I also like that while our trains seem slower than NYC trains, it's easier to get around due to the smaller size and that we have all transfers in a central location. You guys have Grand Central in Midtown but because your trains stop more frequently and cover more territory it seemed to take longer to get around. The no alleys thing was also a bummer. I was surprised that they pile garbage on the sidewalks the way they do. I always thought they would use dumpsters, I couldn't believe that you would have to navigate around giant piles of garbage. The smell of hot garbage baking in the summer isnt pleasant to those who are not used to it. I found New Yorkers to be friendly but they loved bragging about their city and telling you your city was tiny and insignificant even though they never been there because why would a New Yorker need to go to Chicago!
Hey just something about your videos. Your mic when you're speaking is really low and the music in between your brolls is super loud. I feel like I need to EQ my speakers just to watch your video so I don't get an audio shock from going between the two. Can you fix that for your future videos?
Chicago is beautiful (some parts) but it is full of homeless people, violence and rude people. Taxes are outrageous, public transit is top notch. Don’t move here unless you have a very good paying job, and connections. Housing prices especially for rentals has become a crisis and unaffordable in some areas. Folks finding roommates is very common on the North side Of the City. A 1 bdrm apt can easily run $1200 and up.
Short vlog due to travels and time change but have a dope vid going up tomorrow for you guys
We are vloggers in Chicago as well if you ever want to link up!

I would love to have you on instagram😊
I live in St. Louis and every day there’s 2 cases Chicago gets less beautiful looking forward to move to Chicago looks nice can’t wait to live the fuck out of St. Louis
Well Said My Friend👊
Thanks for appreciating our city. There are some nice neighborhoods that can be affordable.
mirandaJean name them
@@jasontate9826 greektown
Chicago is very clean...
Margarita SyM just don’t go to the west/south side
Randy Sookra you’ll be in the hood.... and they don’t believe in trash cans
Alex Sanchez you meant north side I think more hood just saying
right
@@AlexSanchez2254 nvm your right south east and west is bad areas
Being from LA I get the same feels when I traveled to Chicago. I would definitely move there. The food let alone puts it to the top of my list on places to move to.

Yay Alex I’m from Chicago I moved to Indiana for a job promotion but my friends and I are downtown so much for dinner plays and shopping restaurants it’s not even funny😂 I love my hometown sweet old Chicago ❤️
Chicago looks like such a nice city, I reckon it's definitely worth a second trip.
It's an amazing city except in the winter...and it's negative 5 degrees...take a peek at our vlogs!
Doola the winter is cold but its very aesthetic
The Staley King of Trell it definitely is I live in Chicago and I love every second of it
Great city. Summers are long and brutal but we get a small break in winter
slim penis, growing up in Massachusetts, you get used to winter pretty quickly, since you can very easily have -22 degrees Celsius.
The most beautiful architecture in US hands down.
Agree!
Buddha k agree
Most dangerous
JayProdigy -I yea i live in Detroit but i feel like Chicago has more crimes i lived there for 3 years gun shots mostly everday
@@itsnolekid it really depends on where you go just like every other city.
Thanks for the plug of my channel man 😉 (and the camera) :D
What are friends for ; )
Bobby you a god 😂
Chicago is my favorite city
there are 35 beaches in Chicago, actually.
The summers are very humid in Chicago. But honestly. I was born there over eighty years ago and the city has an energy that never bores you and always leaves you with hope
Those drone shots were so dope! I'm actually going to Chicago tomorrow and this video got me so hype for it 💯keep up the good work Brett!
Gary Tejera aye wassup
Shadow wassup man
Those drone shots were epic! Totally agree with you Gary!
nyc and chicago are my favorite cities can't decide between them
Exactly, they both have downsides and good things about them that cancel one another out. However I would say I’d warn that Chicago is not the ideal place for work and isn’t necessarily a stable city
Chicago is much better looking and far cleaner and friendlier and better food
@@pressurewashingcompany Are you kidding? Chicago has one of the most diverse economies in the world.
Chicago is much more violent than New York. For many years Chicago is known to be where people get shot the most of any place
@@ZINC_CROSS6868 That's bullshit from the media.
Loved the Chicago vlogs! I couldn't imagine living anywhere else!
I appreciate the positive review of Chicago! I love my city :]
The north side is beautiful. Reminds me of Philly but cleaner (much cleaner) and the people are so much more chill. Just like you said about NYC. I love the Manhattan area of NYC, but I have to say Chicago is more picturesque. Love Chicago but only the North side and down town.
Chicago is the best city in the entire world
Born and Raised in Chicagoland area.
Pros:
Gorgeous Architecture
Museums and Restaurants Galore
Highly Cultured
Diverse
Urban Vibes (fashion, hip hop, etc)
Great Food! Pizza and Hot Dogs, Beer
Great Sports to do and watch
Decent jobs
Cons
Some People are rude AF especially during nightlife
Expensive
COLD AF!!! sometimes like -10 in Winter horrible snow and ice and wind
Crowded not as much as NYC
Crime and homicide has tripled lots of shootings (depending on area)
High Taxes
Corrupt Politicians
Sweet Home Chicago 😀🌃🏙
Christina Mancuso would you add crumbling infrastructure and potholes to cons? Haha
Christina Mancuso Me too, I was raised in the area, unfortunately as a child the only times I ended up going to the city was to go to the to visit my grandmother in the hospital, not the most pleasant memories 😅
Crime and homicide has tripled because of all the diversity and the libs who ruin it when they come from a city like new york.
cold I wish as the summers here are brutal!. Crime like any city is only in black areas
@@robertpreston2220 agreed but you didn't have to be direct, the South side is infested with gangs and crime but it'll forever be home
I’ve lived in Chicago for six years and I love every part of it
letro wonna live in some tower with balcony with a view of the city Chicago my dream place to live
Chicago is such a beautiful place!💖
but violence but my favourite 😂😂😂😂😍😍
Someone probably already posted this but the river is green because they die it for St. Patrick’s Day and it just stays like that for the summer
DYE the water green.
I Clog Toilets
Your name was the story of my life as a youngin
No idiot its greenish aqua blue because of the the minerals what do you know your jealous because the Hudson river is full of shit
You sound so stupid how the fuck does a die stay on a flowing river it must be a magical leprechaun dye
I WANT TO VISIT
Born & raised in Chicago, & am going to move back once I have my $$$$ right!!!!! Rogers Park is great!!!!! DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT MOVING TO NEW Orleans, where I am now. IT SUCKS, & today, 7/10 it has flooding AGAIN!!!!! Check weather, & see for yourself!!!!!
Enjoyed this fresh Chicago scenery in your vlogs!!
Thank you Brett for the video of my city! Come back often.
Looks really nice to live there. I'm from the Philippines and we'll be migrating soon anddddd this video really helped me get rid of my anxiety 😹
Kat Oliva how’d it go ?:)
I genuinely enjoy your vlogs Brett👌🏾 keep up the good work
Appreciate that Jay. Tell your friends ; )
Thanks for stopping by at Chicago! For someone who lives here its cool to see how other people react to it! A lot of people think Chicago is bad but i don't think its all bad, sure there's stuff to work on but, its a wonderful city
Now I wanna go back and check out Chicago. I only visited family & didn’t see much. I’ve been traveling internationally mainly
Forget the city look at that slick frontside flip! Look foward to visiting chicago someday
Seeing that pizza made me so hungry haha
Nothing beats midwest hospitality! 😊 Chicago is fantastic! I grew up just a couple of hours from there. So beautiful and clean. The only down side is the crime. It's very high.
Jennifer Cook-Spillers Crime is mostly in a few neighborhoods that nobody goes to anyway. Certainly no tourist will ever go to the Englewood neighborhood.
I go every year the last 6 years and I want to make it my new home so bad. Best food! every culture represented
i would love u too move to chicago if u did because i live in chicago and im ur BIGGEST fan
Hope you're enjoying yourself out there bubble tea brett
Thnx Netty ; )
We didn't realise you could swim in the river there in Chicago. The water looks so nice!
gotta love a bit of Brett in the morning! Hi from Australia
Mornin' Luke. Enjoy the day ; )
Bruh you should definitely never swim in the Chicago river no matter how nice it looks. They used to dump leftover meat and blood from the slaughterhouses across the entire city for almost a hundred years not to mention sewage and trash as well. Stick to Lake Michigan
you guys love it so much so obviously know nothing about the weather
"Went back to a friend's place..." We know who that was.
The USA seems very bland compared to Europe who would choose to live there I see Yardley anything interesting about it p
@@juniordunkley5298 Well most in the US would not live in Europe. Once you have seen all the historical sites, there is nothing else of interest. I would take Chicago and NYC any day.
Junior Dunkley More people European people move to America than Americans do with Europe. It’s a given that America is more popular, although Europe is also very great.
I’d 100% consider a move to Chicago if it weren’t for the Winters
My mom wants us to move to Chicago. It's going to be a big change. A new school. Making new friends. A new house. I don't it might be different from where I live now.
Chicago Is The Best Place To Live
Can You do anything video in Chicago? a NYC Vs Chi comparisons
He should have went to Garrett’s popcorn OMG so good🍿 the cheese popcorn is the shit❤️
hi any affordable places in Chicago as of 2020 ... thanks !
Haha That's the O'Hare airport for you. They did that to me twice (Delay the flight, and then go back to original departure). Small price to pay for such an awesome city though!
Actually it is the airline that delays and changes flight times, not the airport. This stuff happens in Philly all the time.
Chicago seems such a nice touristic destination, I'm taking notes if someday I travel to US!
“Smell of garbage" lmao 😂😂
I LMAO when he said that, because it's so true. There is a big difference in smell between the two cities. I never smell garbage in Chicago.
nice homie! my wife is from chicago and im from new york so ive experienced the wonders of both places... but NEW YORK DOE!!!
if anyone is interested there’s this awesome restaurant that makes the most delicious pizza pot pies it’s called the pizza Co Grinder plus that place used to be owned by one of the most notorious Gangsters of Chicago Alcapone there’s also a story on back of the menu which you gotta check out!
Idk... I think Chicago has all what I need. Plus more. You can't go wrong in the 2nd city.
My fav city
Im from Roger's Park and miss Chicago. Once I get out of the military I want to move back to the city.
I’m from East Rogers Park. when I was in the navy stationed in Japan all I could think about was getting back. Ive back ten years now, and all I think about is leaving again lol. I’m moving to Vegas later this year. I’ll miss Chicago again when I’m gone. It’s a vicious cycle.
Live in Rogers Park
Lovin the viogs Brett! Just transferred to Manhattan College, any chance you'll be coming by to talk again about Fortune and building your own brand?
Always enjoy coming back to do so. Will try my best to #gojaspers

Have you been in Guatemala?
Are those shots yours? Or Did you use a drone for these shots?
I live here and ive only been to the city like once or twice but ive drivin thru it lots of times
Hii from Bangladesh. I really like your video.
Can you go to Maryland!
But that's uno's they have it everywhere. Including NY. I went to one in BK. I also have one 10 minutes from my house in Jersey.
Really? Didn't know that. It was right next to my hotel and they recommended it. Was delicious either way
Yo that's the original Uno's! That pizza looked way better than any Uno's I've ever been to for sure
Don't move until I see you in NYC. I'm in Chinatown every Tuesday and Thursday for those $1 bubble teas

Do not swim in the Chicago river as you can die from the undercurrent
Breh, thanks for giving my hometown some exposure XD
You should visit south side...

Chicago is not a beach city and it is cold nine months out of the year
