Getting around
Moving Around the City
It’s easiest to get around the city if you have a car - especially if you plan to visit neighborhoods “outside the loop”. If you don’t have a car; however, there are options available. The light rail is relatively quick and easy to use. Can be sketch on some stops at night but if you’re used to using public transportation it won’t be anything you haven’t experienced before.
