The Jazz, yeah. Rogers Park, Arlington Heights, Wheeling, Crystal Lake, etc are all densely Russian populated places nowadays. Skokie was once too, but everyone started moving north after a certain point in time.

Yelizaveta, you cannot forget Russian in just 3 years. I've been here 8.5 and it's far from forgotten. And at my age, it was much easier to forget (13 upon arriving, 21 now). By the way, Boris who?
