Where is Illinois in BitLife?

Illinois, the inland empire state, is known for its incredibly diverse economy. It’s also famous for being the birthplaces of famous presidents like Abraham Lincoln, Ulysses S. Grant, and Barack Obama. Whether you’re trying to complete the Tortured Artist challenge or you just want to live in the state of Illinois, we’ll show you how to find it.

Open up BitLife and start a new life. Your name and gender can be whatever you like, so get creative. The only things that matter are your starting locations, so choose the United States for your country and Chicago for your place. This is how to be born in Illinois.

While you’re here, make sure customize your special talent, appearance, and attributes, if you have God Mode purchased and unlocked. This is the only chance you get to customize these options, so don’t forget.

Chicago is the largest city in Illinois, so this will start you out in the state of Illinois. Sometimes, BitLife has both the largest city and the capital, which would be Springfield in this case, but only Chicago is included for some reason.

BitLife only seems to include multiple cities for the larger states; California, for instance, has San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Sacramento! The smaller states, like the majority of east coast states, usually only have one city to represent them, sadly.

We hope this little geography quiz refreshed your memory on where Illinois is in the United States. If you have any other questions or tips about BitLife or the latest challenge, let us know in the comments below, and don’t forget to check out the rest of our BitLife guides.
