The median property tax rate is 1.51%, lower than the Illinois rate of 1.8% but about twice the national rate of 0.74%, so owners still carry a notable tax cost relative to the price of a home.
The median household income is $51,771, noticeably below the state figure of $65,699.50 and the national figure of $65,108. Employment is the clearest challenge: the unemployment rate is 6.05%, more than double the state rate of 2.92% and the national rate of 2.87%.
These figures point to a county with low home prices and rents, moderate property taxes, incomes that trail state and national levels, and a labor market that is considerably softer than average.
