Chicago is a major transportation route for trade. thoughout America.Originally Posted by Marv_Albert
It connected by road, airport, shipping lanes, to virtually every place in the country.
You combine that with a historical street gang presence and thus Chicago is also a major, major transhipment point for drugs. Which means it's much more valuable to hold street corner turf for drugs in Chicago than almost anywhere else.
My guess is that a few years from now we will see that the cities that have seen a major uptick in violence in the past few years were due to the opioid epidemic. Those will be the major distribution points.

Lived in the Chicago area for about 3 years.
As strange as it sounds , the people , are not friendly... .
Not compared to Milwaukee, where saying hi or thank you doesn't get a look like your trying to steal from them.
But none the less, living in a rural area in Wisconsin , two things I miss about CHiCAgooo
THE WOMAN
THE FOOD
hands down the two best things from that city
