Who Gets to Call Chicago Home
Description
A writer from Naperville insists he’s from Chicago—despite living in the suburbs—because his identity is shaped by city roots, childhood memories, and jobs downtown. When challenged at a baseball game, he argues that belonging isn’t about zip codes but about what shaped you. The debate sparks a deeper question: who gets to claim a place as home? It’s about the intangible ties that make a city feel like your true origin, even if you’re not physically there anymore.
