Hi all. In Chicago and looking to redo my front concrete stairs to a brick bungalow. 6 steps and the walkway (about 12 ft) to the city sidewalk. Ballpark estimates on what you all have paid? Also, PSI of concrete (if you know)?

@Benjamin E. - I think you'll find a range between $5k-$10k depending on pulling permits and any special details you want like handrails.

Typically, the lower range with be 2500 psi but I'd suggest always using something higher between 3500-4000 psi to avoid cracking.  The cost difference isn't much and being you are here in Chicago with our awesome winters your money will be well spent.
