> **Visual Context:** A map of Gary, Indiana (a suburb outside Chicago) displays numerous apartment rental listings with purple price tags ranging from $850 to $2K, showing abundant affordable options under $1,500/month, including units near downtown Gary, the Save More Food Center on Highway 53, and various listings showing "1 unit," "2 units," "3 units," and "4 units" available. The image supports the post's claim about finding tons of affordable rental options in a suburb outside Chicago, contrasting with the narrator's complaint about expensive downtown Chicago apartments.

This idiot is looking in downtown Chicago and can’t find anything under $5k/month
