20 The Magnificent Mile; Chicago, Illinois
This shopping district close to the city’s center houses both luxurious and tourist-friendly stores, providing blocks upon blocks of entertainment to both visitors and locals—though the locals would rather stick to the less-populated shopping malls. In fact, most of the locals who know about the over inflated prices along Magnificent Mile are too smart to spend their hard-earned money in a tourist trap such as this one. Lately, tourism has only been bolstered by the record number of tourists visiting the city, with a new record being set for 2018 tourism, which stands at a cool 55 million.
