I’m a traveler and need to choose my next destination. I could accept positions in Chicago or Colorado Springs- I’ve never been to either. I think my living stipend would go further in Colorado but I’m worried it will be boring? Rent is so high in Chicago from what I’ve seen, but is it worth it for the experience?

Chicago weather is brutal, I would go to Colorado Springs.

I would agree although this winter is very odd. We haven’t been super cold no have we had much snow but it’s only almost Christmas. The worst is Jan-March

Agree with previous posters. You don’t want to live in Chicago, maybe just visit if that. Not worth the risk. Most suburbs are ok, just depends on exact location.

Chicago is quite crowded but the city itself is so nice. I think you will enjoy it there.

I live in the chicago suburbs. Where exactly in chicago is the assignment? Personally I would not take anything in chicago. It’s not safe. We are in the far west suburbs and I can’t remember the last time we went to ‘the city’. My uncle is retired chicago pd and would say the same. Just stay out. Now if your assignment is in the suburbs that would be better. Just depends where

I was wondering what kind of role would be best step forward for an admin fellow.

I was offered a project coordinator role but feel I should not accept the same without looking at other options. I aim to seek out a project manager role and was wondering if this would be the wrong step forward.
