Naperville is one of most affluent suburbs in Chicago area. One of my sons lives there. Lots of mansions, BEYOND McMansions by 5-10 bedrooms and baths. Plenty of room and money to pay for all these people just striving for a chance. Very compassionate folks, much like Evanston and Oak Park.

I wouldn't do it. That's volunteering to be dragged down a deep, dark hole you never know if you'll get out of. I'd as soon foot the bill for a room with a kitchenette. Has less to do with the money than my distrust and dislike of people :)

Oh he's definitely pointing out the hypocrisy of so many in that city. "We care..." NIMBY!
