Chicago is the fourth largest city in the US. Large cities have lots of lights coming from houses, roadways, businesses, car headlights, etc. These lights compete with starlight, essentially washing the starlight out.
If you want to see amazing starry skies, go to a place that is not very populated. It will be darker than you've ever seen, and the stars will look sparkly and bright. You will see enormous numbers of stars, too, since even the weaker ones will show up more in the darker sky.

You must be in an area with too much "light Pollution" If you want some good star gazing go out into the country to a place with less lights around say at a cabin in the mountains, then go out and enjoy, Just be careful too!!

I think it's called the smogs and the light pollution, if not air pollution, that dilute the night lights. Are you from a less populated area? Night sky is so beautiful, and it's very unfortunate that one has to give it up to live in the cities. 'Hope you'll get to visit places where you can enjoy them more.

city lights give off a glow around them that interferes with the light from the stars(a source of light pollution) ..... this glow extends farther than you can visibly see ........ you put a bunch of lights together (ex ... a city or suburb) you wont be able to see the shining of the stars
another problem could be the pollution level in chicago
go out to a country field with no lights for miles .... youll be amazed
