Gosh, in my first year of rv'ing, I managed both St Louis and Chicago. The article's argument against St Louis is based mostly upon crime, and certainly one always should be aware of one's surroundings. Plenty of nice areas around that city to visit the sights.
Chicago traffic is heavy, but with relatives in Indiana and Wisconsin, passing through Chicago, traffic delays and all, is still faster than going more than a hundred miles out of the way. I am perfectly willing to pay tolls if traffic is flowing better on the tollways.
Interstates in the Midwest are often rough. All those freeze-thaw cycles and all those deicing agents take their toll on the roads very quickly. Admittedly, I have no way of knowing if the quality of construction is all it should be but I have watched those road go from new and smooth to rough very quickly. That is not reason enough to avoid visiting relatives in the area.
