There was also a more practical and personal reason for the Kardashian-West’s recent purchase. “Chicago is a place where the family can unwind a bit and not be hounded by photographers. Kanye has also been spending a lot more time with his dad, which also played a role in the decision to put down roots there,” the source explained.
