I had the same situation as OP and stuck with a top Chicago BL firm because my goal was to work at a top firm in Chicago. It's a pretty simple decision and boils down to what OP ultimately cares about: living where they want to live, or prestige. It does seem based on this thread that several Internet strangers will think OP is cooler for working at a higher ranked firm, though, so I certainly empathize with OP that it's a tough call.
People blithely scrolling past the 50-page “post here about your emotionally, mentally, and physically abusive boss” thread to ask “yes, but which offer can I lord over my middle school bullies who don’t care?”
