What’s the best big city in America? Apparently a lot of people think it’s Chicago!

Condé Nast conducted their annual survey to their readers asking, once again, which big U.S. city they believe is the best. The readers responded putting Chicago at the top. The Windy City beat out New York City in 2nd Place, New Orleans in 3rd and Boston in 4th.

Condé Nast sites architecture, museums, brilliant chefs, and a massive brewing scene for reasons people everywhere love to travel to this midwest destination. We got a lot of great restaurants and bars they love too.
