This is huge. If your city become 2nd headquarter the real estate market will go to the roof. Thousands of talented people will flock to that city and buy up all the apartments. This means: if you buy a crappy one now and someone will want it and you make instant money right there. Real Estate buy-sell can earn you money that takes years and years to make. But that's only when Amazon choose your city or you still have a crappy house but eventually you will probably get a buyer.

Is Chicago going to win? There are better cheaper places with less violence and also warmer. Ooh Amazon coming meaning jobs jobs jobs, well ONLY if you know a thing or two about AWS I guess. Why does Amazon give you a finalist list and not tell you result right away? It is a long while.
