One of my kid's activity things might be moved to Miluwaukee in the spring. They want our input would we be okay with that blah blah blah. Is it safe? I would not go into Chicago right now if I didn't need to.

Safe? You're probably more likely to get hurt in an auto accident driving to/from Milwaukee or downtown Chicago than anything else.

I can say we aren't comfortable with going to Milwaukee for a few weekends if crime is way up. I'd prefer not to be shot, mugged, or car jacked like what's happening in Chicago.

Lake Geneva might also be an option and I'd be fine with that.

you might catch a cold

The streets are empty. More likely to get hit by a drunk in Lake Geneva than anything else.

Every time I drive in on the Eisenhower and pass through the Hillside strangler, I see the big Carmax sign telling motorists to take the "MANHEIM" exit. You'd think a company like Carmax would tell the idiots who made the sign to re-do it, but it's been there for years.

Maybe but I also think that you are overlooking quite a bit of rising crime in and around Chicago. That shooting spree in Evanston. There was at least one car jacking in Westmont about 6 months ago, one in Naperville last week, a woman in Aurora was car jacked and shot, one recently near the mayor's house and one near Sears Tower. Quite a few burglaries by us. I'm not feeling really safe in the suburbs anymore, I can't imagine Chicago is better. And I don't know if it matters that I am safe or not, the perception that I am not is there. I can't say I don't believe you, but I'm not going downtown anytime soon either.

The crime has always been there, you are just more aware of it now since you are not as distracted by life's distractions.
