I live 20 miles outside of Chicago the sanctuary city. Im not commenting on the politics right now- but the fact that there has been an exodus of Illinois residents leaving the state due to high taxes in the state (we pay 9.75% sales tax in cook county!). These are people who earn above $77,000.00 a year. However I read an article this week confirming my fears that Chicago being a sanctuary city, with "carnage", many residents are moving out of the city /state. It affects us since we live in Cook county same as Chicago- that our property taxes and personal state tax will go up to make up for the loss in revenue. A perfect storm is coming! We cant move as we live in a good community with good schools and job is here. I thank my lucky stars that I am frugal and live below our means and will try to off set the high cost for now-to add the "depression era mentality I have now".But this place will be a battleground of all levels.Any thoughts?
