Yes, exactly! Poles in Chicago are like Italians, Irish and Hispanics in New York. We had Jimmy Breslin and the like, Chicago had Art Royko.

Poles also controlled the meat packing industry, about which the movie "Calling Northside 777" (1947) was made:-)

There are more Polish living in Chicago than any other city in the world. Besides, Warsaw.
