5. There are a bunch of Women's Health Clinics newly opening in Illinois.

Not to be confused with phony Crisis Pregnancy Centers.

I think healthcare organizations expect to see a lot of women patients from outside Illinois coming here for healthcare. Danville, the city in this story, sits right on the border with Indiana, which has draconian laws against women's healthcare. Indiana is currently trying to prosecute a doctor who performed an abortion on a ten-year-old. It is no wonder women in Indiana want to get healthcare from out-of-state.

Illinois is a Blue Oasis in a Red Desert of States with laws discriminating against women needing healthcare.
