<p>Champaign doesn’t get much snow, it get chilly, and stays between 20-30 degrees through most of winter. Chicago is 2 hours away, Indianapolis is 2 hours away, St Louis is about 3 and half hours. We have hundreds of resteraunts in every type, Traditional Bar and Grill, Italian, Chinese, Taiwanese, Mediterranean, Mexican, etc etc. There is two great campus streets filled with a million restuarants, fast food, coffee shops, bars etc, and a downtown with coffee shops and bars. There are two movie theaters each with 16+ screens, a large mall, many shopping centers, 3 super walmarts, 3 major bookstores. Needless to say, there is a lot to do.</p>
