Chicago is still going up up up. Buy a condo in lincoln park as an investment, and I'll rent it from you so you'll make even more. Everything here grows 5-10% a year sometimes more. A group of small condos on the 1800 block were 450k a piece 3 years ago, try 650k now.
Also, look for growing suburbs with good school systems and the towns nearby. In naperville stuff is real expensive now, and right near it is plainfield, and everyone wants to come near naperville, so they are all building up plainfield as fast as I've ever seen, if you bought even a 20 acre farm there 5 years ago you'd be richer than hell from the sale now.
