If you've spent a decent amount of time in Chicago and the neighborhoods surrounding the Windy City, then many of the flick's locations may seem familiar to you: that's because the entirety of Ferris Bueller's Day Off was filmed in Chi-town and a bunch of areas surrounding the major metropolitan city.

While Chicago in recent years may be making headlines for massive spikes in violent crimes, and areas being so prone to theft and burglary that major retailers are opting to simply not do business there any longer, the city holds a cherished place in America's history. The virtue of its geography helped it become a hot spot for commerce, but Chicago is also the setting for numerous iconic films and TV shows, Ferris Bueller's Day Off included.
