Use Your Bean.
Granted, Champaign-Urbana may not be a large city. But that's half the reason for living here. There's less crime, less traffic and most importantly, there's room to excel at a prestigious accounting firm that will appreciate you so much more than an international corporation that can't remember your name.

Life in Champaign-Urbana
When you consider a salary offer from a large city firm, don't forget the hidden costs - long commutes, high crime and an even higher cost of living. Not to mention the daily hassles of life in the city. At Martin Hood Friese & Associates, we offer competitive salaries within the relaxed setting of a large Midwest college town.

From Big Ten sports to touring Broadway productions, C-U combines the entertainment possibilities of a city twice it's size. And its centrally located between Chicago, St. Louis and Indianapolis - three of the Midwest's largest metropolitan hubs - offering easy access to a world of big city entertainment.

Champaign is a paradox. It's a comfortable, relaxed place to live. Yet it's on the cutting edge of technology, thanks in part to the University of Illinois and the National Center for Supercomputing Applications. It's a community with a lot to like.
