The city is an international hub for finance, commerce, industry, telecommunications, and transportation, and O'Hare International Airport being the second-busiest airport in the world in terms of traffic movements, the first one is Atlanta.
    In 2012, Chicago hosted 46.2 million international and domestic visitors. The city's culture includes contributions to visual arts, novels, film, theater, and music, particularly blues and soul. The city has many nicknames, which reflect the impressions and opinions about historical and contemporary Chicago. The best-known is perhaps "Windy City".
    In 2012, a soaring homicide rate and talk of a new murder capital of the U.S. brought a great deal of attention to Chicago. Many believe the racial segregation that has existed for decades has created large areas of concentrated poverty rampant with crime, neglect, and alcohol and drug addiction. While, This year, murders in Chicago are down by 29 percent, the city continues to battle with high numbers.
    On this edition of Inside Out we take an in-depth look at the challenges and opportunities facing this great city!

    Andrew Holms was very informative, thank you very much for interviewing him. The others really didn't seem to know that well what the hell they were talking about.

    I bothers me how they tiptoe around the issue of black parenting being in the gutter. It's been in the gutter. Even in Seattle here - you can't even ride public transportation without having to deal with a loud, rude, foul-mouthed, indignant, insolent, mostly young, black man or woman. I watched a documentary about Chicago's scholastic testing. Seventy-percent of black kids are making it to high school without being able to read or write... C'mon people.
