I always thought the sticks started at Aurora and Joliet. When my dad was a kid, they probably started at oak park.

I actually did live out in the sticks. I liked it. Just cost too much and there was no work.Originally Posted by Black Diamond

I can imagine. I remember hearing no one below I-80 votes like those above it.

Well my cousins lived in the city when I was really young, moved to Oak Park when I was in kindergarten. They said we live 'in the country.' Elmhurst at the time had over 40k people, just not multi-family housing. LOL!I always thought the sticks started at Aurora and Joliet. When my dad was a kid, they probably started at oak park.
Past DeKalb is 'country.' I get to define it. Peoria is a town out in the sticks. Used to have heavy manufacturing, but that was gone years ago with exception of Caterpillar, which just announced the plant closing.
