    Taxed to death in this corrupt state. Paying off teacher pensions they cant afford, state tax increase of 30%. Wtf! I thought New Mexico corruption was bad. O' yeah. Lets talk about our state/county gun control helping our homicide rate in Chicago.

    Stay away from Illinois. You have been warned...

    Rant over.

    Grew up in Illinois near Chicago, move to Pa, Va , Ga and settled in Texas....No state tax it's great you should consider. There are 6 no state tax states TX, WY, TN, AK, WA, NV. The one that is most like what your used to in IL is TX.

    I live in Indiana but would love to live in the great state of Colorado. Chicago will always drag the state of Illinois down.

    I actually like IN. Reminds me of CO when I first moved here. Nice houses at great prices. But not sure my wife could survive the winters there; neither could I. But in the other months, I really liked going to Indy.

    I live in NY. It sucks. My company offered me a transfer to Dallas TX 4 years ago. We decided not to do it because all of our family is here and our parents are getting older. Don't regret our decisions, but we are very aware of how sucky it is here.

    So you're from the state that is responsible for all of the guns in Chicago huh.. All the politicians say that we have strict gun laws here but Indiana doesn't and is the reason why so many guns go around and shoot people.

    Good ole Govt cant budget for crap and when they over spend, oh wait lets just raise taxes on everyone. Lots of states seem to have these issues as of late, bunch of crap and really seems like nothing is ever going to change.

    Seven U.S. states currently don't have an income tax: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington and Wyoming. And residents of New Hampshire and Tennessee are also spared from handing over an extra chunk of their paycheck on April 15, though they do pay tax on dividends and income from investments
