Thinking about moving to Chicago?
What should you know about moving to Chicago? How do you get around? How do you find a place to live in Chicago? Where should you go, what should you do, and how do you meet people?
Most of the people who live in Chicago have achieved promising careers, incredible friends, and incomparable life experiences. But this life was only attained after an initial period of learning to live in Chicago – where times were difficult, bewildering, and lonely.
Starting a new life in an unfamiliar place isn’t easy and it can take YEARS OF TRIAL AND ERROR to find your place in it – meanwhile your life is passing you by.
Live in Chicago, but skip the “new-in-town blues”
That’s why this book was written for people moving to Chicago.
“NEW IN TOWN CHICAGO” is the resourceful, streetwise, savvy new resident’s guide to moving in, getting around, and building a new life in the Windy City.
What you REALLY ought to know about moving to Chicago to navigate through the minefield of financial pitfalls, social foibles, and lurking dangers that befall the thousands of new residents moving to Chicago each year.
New in Town Chicago is NOT a reference book, address book, or yellow pages for people who live in Chicago. Here on the Internet, that information is just a click away.

“NEW IN TOWN CHICAGO is a great book for young people moving to Chicago who don’t want to pour through unnecessary information and just want to hear it straight from the residents who live in Chicago on what they really need to know.”
Kate Nolan – Chicago Real Estate Association
“It’s cut-the-crap tone is refreshing. NEW IN TOWN CHICAGO is like learning about how to live in Chicago from a friend who doesn’t mind telling you how it really is… great suggestions on stuff to do in Chicago and surviving the mischievous Chicago weather.”
Owen Rasmussen – Downtown Chicago Entertainment Magazine
“Short, sweet, and to the point. Some of the opinions might rattle a few cages, but the honesty in NEW IN TOWN is rare indeed for a book on the subject of moving to Chicago.”
Kellen Berger – University of Chicago Residential Advisor
“By focusing on the emotional journey of moving to a new city, NEW IN TOWN CHICAGO is a great read for young people moving to Chicago who want a friendly, helping hand instead of just maps, phone numbers, and area codes.”
Vivian Alston – Chicago Alderman Council Association
