[Shitcago Tribloon] Amber, who requested her last name be withheld out of concern for her safety, said she and her husband are actively eyeing a home near the Indiana Dunes National Park, about 50 miles outside of Chicago. The millennial couple, both age 30, currently live in River North, where much of the summer looting has been centered.
"We're just looking for more safety," she said.
Amber's husband also works as a nurse. The pair supports the Black Lives Matter movement and the uprising, Amber said, but living smack dab at the intersection of the downtown unrest and the COVID-19 pandemic has been incredibly difficult.
"I think people forget that people do live here, too -- it's not just the Guccis and the Jimmy Choo stores," she said. "And I completely support it all. You stealing shoes means nothing to me -- that doesn't hurt me at all. It's just the fact that that brings more crime, and that does endanger me."
."It wasn't supposed to happen to meeee! I'm one of the good ones!"
