Not Chicago. Whatever its other positives, I would not count the 'urban living' experience as one of them.
Chicago is perhaps the easiest 'urban' city to just get by in. You can live there for next to nothing, which has been a boon for the arts and music in the past, but now has created one of the most abject gulfs between the haves and have nots in the US. Also, the current city government is probably the closest ever to perfecting Stalinism with a level of corruption that would make Boss Tweed envious.
