When I was in college, my roommate was from Aurora, and at the time it was an (expensive) in-state long distance call for us to talk about move-in plans. It was definitely thought of as its own town, far removed from Chicago but within driving distance for occasional visits. No one would have considered it to be a bedroom community for commuters.

I’m sure they’ll bundle that with a repeal of the 13th as a package deal. Maybe throw in the 1st and 8th as well.
