Thanks for posting - bookmarked.
Lots of interesting data.
“I’m also thinking about putting an SKS (with banana clip) in the trunk too.”
My folding-stock shotgun fits nicely in a double-tennis racket tennis case. A softball bat case might work for your SKS.
Someone gets a peek in your trunk while you load water softener salt, you’re a jock.
Do you think White Sox attendance has declined?
Is there new park in a fairly tranquil location?
I recall reading an account several years back of a guy who was mugged
one night after a game and him saying he would cease attending them.
I wasn’t sure, so I checked Baseball Reference, Attendance has declined over the past 6 seasons. From around 27,000 per game in 2010, to around 20,000 now. U.S. Cellular is across the street from the old Comiskey Park (aka “Cominskey” to Obama). That neighborhood is mostly Asian and is relatively safe by southside standards. So the decline in Sox attendance might have more to do with their record than the neighborhood.
Thanks. I was just curious if the stadium area was very bad.
My one Chicago visit was to O’Hare Airport in the 60s.
Hey, maybe that makes me a Chicago eggspert ;<}
A few things have likely changed since then. :)

How Many People Have Concealed Carry Licenses in Your County?
The latest look at concealed carry statistics in Illinois.
By Reboot Illinois (News Partner) - July 21, 2016 3:34 pm ET
More than 181,000 Illinoisans have a license to carry a concealed firearm, according to the Illinois State Police.
In July 2013, Illinois became the last state in the nation to legalize concealed carry after a federal circuit appeals court struck down a ban on carrying concealed handguns in December 2012.
The Illinois State Police began issuing licenses to residents in the spring of 2014; and as of June 1, 2016, there were a total of 181,489 active concealed carry licenses.
Using data provided by the state police, weve listed and mapped out which counties have the most concealed carry license holders per 1,000 residents as ranking counties based on the total number of active concealed carry licenses can be misleading.

For example, more than 47,000 permits have been issued to residents of Cook County by far the most in the state but the county ranks dead last for the number of license holders per 1,000 people.
Here are the Top 25 counties with most and fewest concealed carry license holders per 1,000 people.
We also have included a spreadsheet with county totals, along with the number of people who have had their permit revoked, suspended or application denied (use the tabs at the bottom to sort by men and women).
