Illinois, Wisconsin, and Michigan are all pretty great. A lot of cool places to find, beach and lake towns, and a lot of great scenery throughout. I don't have much to say about the Midwest beyond that. Beyond Chicago, I wouldn't say the other
cities in the Midwest are very interesting. Or at least not on the same level as say Boston, Seattle, Portland, Miami, Philadelphia, DC, New Orleans, or even Pittsburgh.

Do a little investigation before you go ragging on the cities within a 300 mile radius of Chicago. Obviously most of these cities dont just lay it out there like Chicago, but they are definitely interesting towns in their own right. I would say St. Louis is at least as interesting as Milwaukee.

I have been through St. Louis's neighborhoods. Sorry, but it's just not my kind of place. Kansas City on the other hand, I think it is a lot of fun and has a lot to offer, especially in terms of delicious foods. I'd visit KC far more often if it weren't so far.
And it's the people that make Milwaukee a great place (well the bar scene and food too), not the city itself. Just my opinion...
