Welcome to the land of 10,000 taxes!

I don't think you understand the environment I came from...would drive down the street to the county over to avoid the 10% sales tax.

I have heard nothing but good things from people about working there, which makes me excited. High retention which says a lot about a culture.

  • 1-yr pop. growth rate: -0.29%
  • Current population: 12.80 million
  • 2015 population: 12.84 million
  • 10-yr pop. growth rate: 1.25%
While the population of Illinois has increased nearly every year in the past five decades, the state’s population declined in 2014, 2015 and 2016. The state’s population shrank by 0.3% in 2016, the second fastest pace of decline of any state. A large share of the population loss was due to residents leaving the Chicago-Naperville-Elgin metro area. In a survey conducted by the Chicago Tribune, residents who had moved out of the city in recent years cited high taxes, unemployment, poor weather, and violent crime as primary reasons for leaving Chicago. The population of Chicago decreased by 19,570 residents in 2016, more than half of the state’s overall population loss of 37,508 residents.

I'm sure most of them moved to Minnesota.
