How times change. St. Louis, Missouri which has been declared a 'murder capital' every other week has just been given a new title - Most family-friendly city in America.
What's your idea of fun? Your answer will likely determine whether you agree with a new ranking which claims Illinois is one of the most fun states - again.
I do not agree with this. I want to be clear that the concept that Illinois is a bad place to raise a family is the opinion of the internet and probably not from anyone that has lived in the Land of Lincoln. Let's explore why they think that's the case.
"Fun" is a very subjective word. What's fun for one person may be a complete drag for another. That's why I'm a little suspect about a new ranking that claims Illinois is way more "fun" than Missouri.
