Less than a mile from O'Hare, right at the end of one of the runways. It was weird - sometimes I'd see a plane landing and it looked like it was going to clip the roof, and I didn't hear a thing. Other times I wouldn't see the plane, but it sounded (and felt) like it was landing on the roof. God that sucked. The air stank, and everything was dirty. If I walked outside barefoot the bottoms of my feet would be black when I went back inside. I wouldn't live in that pisshole again if you paid me.

Yes I have been in Itasca for about a year, just forgot to update my profile here. I am still trying to sell my damn townhouse there though. Rosemont is a weird town in that it's 95% industrial with just a very small residential area. But I agree, way too close to the airport. I am a 15 minute drive from Rosemont.
