This blog starts with the introductory post about the city Cook County, Illinois, United States. Its name is Des Plaines as the original name is of French origin. One can’t say that this city is large as just about 55.000 live there according to the latest census. At the same time this city can be considered as a suburb of Chicago. Moreover it is adjacent to O’Hare International Airport. Being a Chicago suburb the city has the same postal addresses numbering system. It means that one and the same building may have different numbers according to the belonging to Chicago or Des Plaines. For instance, Devon Avenue in Des Plaines is 3200 South while it is 6400 North in Chicago. A very sophisticated issue for stangers though useful in other ways. How did it happen that there is no boundaries between two cities? Actually, this is the fate of all the small towns and cities as large megalopolices expand the boundaries between them vanish.
As for the demographic situation Des Plaines is not an exceptional American city where practially all nations incorporate in the famous salad bowl. German, Polish, Irish, Italian, English, Swedish and other ancestries are the major in this city. What is important to remember is that the Des Plaines is a very economically diverse city, with home values ranging from $30,000 to more than $1,000,000.
Since it is being considered as Chicago suburb there are practically no own places of interest except may be the first franchised McDonald’s restaurant as nowadays it is a museum. There are schools, one academy, public libraries but once again, since Chicago adjoins Des Plaines all the places of interest in Chicago can be easily reached by those living in Des Plaines. All in all, Des Plaines is just like a dormitory area for those who consider themselves the residents of the Windy City.
