Woman #1: It's so nice outside.
Woman#2: I know! There are people everywhere.
Woman#1: Yeah...not just by the lake, but all over the streets too.
Woman #2: I pay higher rent to live in this area and use all the stuff around here. People who pay lower rent shouldn't be allowed to just come here and use the stuff.
Woman#1: Well Michigan Avenue used to be nice to walk around, now there are just people there all the time.
