Some of you know I flew into Chicago last week for a job interview.

Things have been going very well for me recently (other than the negative money issue)

So is there anyone in the Chicago area that wouldn't mind having a race trailer (24') stored on their property? I would prefer to find a place where I can store all my stuff with me, but I dunno if that is quite possible yet.

If your job is in Indiana, live there. You don't really want to be commuting their everyday. I80/94 has been screwed up ever since I can remember, even when it's not under construction. It does have it's good days, but I've had people come from NW Indiana to buy parts I had for sale and if they're coming during rush hour, it takes anywhere from 1-2.5 hours. It should be about 30 minutes if traffic wasn't shitty. Besides, like timyerby said, cost of living will be lower and it seems like the standard of living is the same.

I live 20 miles from work [Homer Glen, IL to Bedford Park, IL] and it usually takes about an hour to get there.

I went to the University of Illinios: Chicago for a semester. I had an 8am Chemistry lab and had to leave my house at 5:30 to make it there on time and it was only a 5-10 minute walk once I parked. That's the joy of driving into the city from the suburbs. 2+ hours to go 30 miles.
