Chicago net migration trends

Posted Jan 3 2023, 15:46

I’m interested in investing in northwest suburbs of Chicago but recently read a 2022 year end report that take about negative net migration in Illinois, specifically in cook county and city of Chicago. I could see such articles on population decline from 2017 so looks like it’s not something new.

As an investor, how would these migration reports impact your investment decisions in Chicago or suburbs? Most of the real estate videos/podcasts suggest that I should look at cities with positive net migration so curious on why would someone continue to invest in Chicago or suburbs?
