A big vacation/day trip/second home spot for Chicago people in the summer, especially farther south. There's even surfing. Well, something like surfing!

Because there are so many lake homes, there's also a big winter sport and hiking culture, esp. farther north. It's really beautiful!

It's pretty conservative as far as the locals go.
