That's when you buy a cheap fixer upper in the neighborhood, fix it up, and start renting it to the people with funny beards. After they've been paying your mortgage for a few years you can sell the apartment at a massive profit since the prices have gone up massively.

Honestly chicago is a great city

As long as you define the city as starting on roosevelt and going no further west then california street

Or the CTA saves a billion+ dollars and doesn't eminent-domain houses by improving service on the existing Metra Electric to its former rapid-transit standards and fares. But because Metra is governed by a bunch of suburbanites and inter-agency cooperation is abysmal it will never happen.

The Metra is NOT a rapid transit line and you need to remember South Shore line needs slots too, so the frequencies are a major issue.

That didn't preclude the Illinois Central from running 2-3x the amount of trains in the 1940s compared to today. Not being a rapid transit line doesn't preclude the New Haven Line from running 2 trains per hour all day, or suburban lines in Europe, Asia, and Australia from running 4-8 trains per hour. For a four-track electrified passenger dedicated line, scheduling timeslots for 3 branches is a trivial matter, and a lot of systems worldwide manage to get better service with less than that. It's the politics surrounding the decline of the South Side and lack of support for publicly funded transit that make Metra Electric the subpar service it is today.

I'd rather the money go into the circle line or a new crosstown line the city desperately needs.
