Harvey

It's a landmark building in Harvey, Illinois even though it hasn't been functional for many decades. Now, you can see what remains inside of what is known as Bum's Castle which used to be a vital building for the railroad.

Illinois currently has the third highest unemployment rate in the United States and is dealing with an ever lingering budget crisis. That, my friends, would not seem to make Illinois a wonderful place to find employment. That can be misleading.

I was thumbing through Facebook the other night and came across a post from rebootillinois.com which listed the 25 most dangerous Illinois cities according to Law Street Media. These are cities under 100,000 people based on the FBI's violent crime rates and Quincy is listed at number 13.
