Illinois is a big state and, therefore, pretty diverse. You’ll meet a wide variety of people, but you are bound to run into some of these eccentric characters:
1. The Hipster
Also acceptable, former hipsters in grown up jobs hiding evidence that they once were hipsters
2. The Foodie
They judge you if you aren't eating every meal at Alinea.
3. Guys still rocking the trucker hat
It's cool, you're only 10 years late to the party
4. People who just won't let Chief Illiniwek go
Really though
5. Farmer
Good folks
6. The Artist
We've got lots of creative types here
7. The Bicyclist
Whether it's on a trail or in the city, we love to bike
8. The Chicago Sports Fan still living in the past
1985...great year, bro
9. The Obnoxious Seafarer
You'll meet plenty of people who boat all the time, but this is the person who goes once every couple years and posts pics on Facebook of them drinking champagne on the yacht
10. Those dudes whose trucks keep getting bigger and bigger
11. The guy still trying to convince you he's related to Al Capone
By our count, 98% of Chicago is two degrees removed from Al Capone
12. Starbucks Mom
She's taken the kids to school, cleaned the house, has the PTA later and is stopping in for her daily Starbucks
