The rules in the U.S. aren't that different. I live equidistant between Midway and O'Hare in the Chicago area. O'Hare is one of the busiest airports in the U.S. and I don't have any problem finding places to fly. There are plenty of soccer fields and parks that are rarely used. Go early in the morning if you are particularly paranoid about bystanders. I've found if you keep a respectful distance from people, nobody gives shit that you are flying a drone. If anything they're more likely to come up and ask questions, curious about what you are doing.
