Almost one-quarter of households had earnings exceeding US$100,000 in 2016, according to the US Census. Chicago companies employ over four million people, many of them at the more than 400 major corporations that have their headquarters there.

In this interview, ICF Co-Founder Robert Bell speaks with Chicago Chief Technology Officer and First Deputy Commissioner, Carleton Nolan.
