With the incoming Governor keen on extending tax credits for film production in Illinois for another 10 years, there could continue to be a thriving local film industry well into the late 2020s. Fox apparently loves filming here, and they are also looking to expand their lineup with a couple of new shows, slated to begin production in 2019-early 2020.

Oh and forgot this: he also said there are rumblings in the entertainment industry that some studios currently operating in Georgia are incredibly PISSED at the recent election for Governor there, and are actively looking at Chicago (and Toronto to a lesser extent) to shift major productions away from Atlanta. A lot of studios feel that Georgia state leadership and the GOP in general do not have their interests in mind, and would rather work north again, with or without tax credit incentives.
Hmmmm...we hear a lot of rumors around here, so I don't want to get excited, but this could be some really good news. Lets hope.

Actually, I would like to see movies filmed here regularly. It would be nice for us to reach a point where actors feel they could fulfill their career without having to leave Chicago. I realize that we will never come close to having Hollywood, but perhaps having a thriving filming sector will at least make it possible for a larger community of full time actors to stay put.

I wouldn't be surprised. There are at least 2 new Xmas movies on Netflix filmed in Chicago atm. Also Widows in theaters now was also shot here. The city has never looked bigger and better. IMO it's the best looking major city in the country. Say what you will about the Transformers franchise, but TF3 is a major guilty pleasure of mine because of how stunning Chicago looks in the background.

Indeed, it's too soon to say, regarding the Netflix scoop, he should know more information after the new year.

Regarding Fox, that information is solid, as he is currently on his fifth season on a Fox show, and they are very eager to move forward with new show orders for 2019 and 2020 that will film here.

Nice, "Marshall Square" is about to get a whole lot more interesting, trust me...

Fox has a 35 year lease or something like that with Cinespace, they want to extract maximum value out of that resource. I would be shocked if Netflix is doing something only 5 years long unless it's like 5 years with several five year extensions. But they would get a much better deal for long term leasing.

But I think the Fox lease deal was always contingent on whether or not they'd still be able to get state tax credits...which looks like it's a non-issue since they will be extended for many years to come..

Netflix is a weird goose, and I suspect the 5 year min is because their business model doesn't allow for the same type of extended season shows that network tv allows; Netfix can't count on advertiser or even syndication revenue because they rely almost exclusively on subscribers, which in turn affects their lineup, which in turn affects number of seasons of shows in their lineup. Not every show that they produce can be like Orange is the New Black, so I think that's a big underlying reason for the (supposed) 'shorter' 5 year lease...if it materializes at all.

If you add Armour Square to that, then it jumps to 19%. If only talking about foreign born population, then foreign born in China makes up 44.6% of all foreign born peoples in those 4 areas combined - in 2016 that was 43.06%.

It'd be interesting to see the educational attainment if the core million population in the center of Boston (Boston, Brookline, Cambridge, Somerville, Chelsea, maybe Everett) vs the core million of Chicago vs San Francisco's core million (SF plus maybe Daly City).

Thanks for all the data, Marothisu.

Looks like West Ridge continues to be an Immigrant bastion for the city. South Lawndale, Brighton Park, and Albany Park seem to be slipping quite a bit in that regard

I think it's more complex than that, at least in some areas. South Lawndale maybe, but other areas have people coming and going. Brighton Park's vast majority of foreign born are from Mexico. It lost just over 500 of them from 2016 to 2017 but gained nearly 350 from China. I'll have more info from a more granular level.

I'm not certain that you can say an area like Little Village is "slipping a little" because they only added 350 foreign born persons. The fact of the matter is that it would be damn near impossible to cram any more people into that neighborhood without a massive new construction campaign. The existing housing stock is dense and it's occupancy even denser. The fact that the foreign born population increased at all is impressive given plummeting Mexican immigration to the US. But the point being you can only fit so many people in a 2 bedroom apartment and LV is already at that limit neighborhood wide. The neighborhood is also already one of the most "foreign born" to begin with. Given the number of people in the area who are having families and sticking around, it becomes harder and harder for the area to maintain it's foreign born percentage just as a matter of natural birth rates changing residents to "US born" citizens.

Good news on this. I hope that it moves forward and that it wins support of our new “innovator” of a Governor

LOL - I'd like to see what Mike Sula has to say about that (and Steve Dolinsky) who I trust infinitely more about food than a critic who basically only goes to trendy downtown/downtown-ish places. Especially one who has only been in Chicago for 3 years. This guy probably doesn't even know that Bridgeport has more people born in China by over 1500 than Chinatown itself and hasn't explored beyond the one place he mentioned, or not understanding that a place like Homestyle Taste is Dongbei cuisine, but only the first 2 pages, and the rest is stuff they probably don't make as well.

Or that there's more places to get Indian, Vietnamese, etc food than Devon, Argyle, etc.

But you know.
