Well, I called DuPage County Treasurer and looked at property bill...no hidden fees unless they are hiding them...and I asked...

Your Lake County info is surprising thta they are highest in state...Wow even higher than Cook! Your example of a house value and property taxes sounds a lot more reasonable that the article...I cannot believe a tax bill is $15,000 a year on a house they bought for $227,000 in 2013. Does not add up...

It gets tiresome seeing reports and articles that are not completely clear like the one posted. Again, there is something wrong with tho9se numbers.

Illinois does have lots of problems, but property tax problems are local and may be the one area where taxpayers can have more ability to reduce taxes.

I wasn't suggesting they hide the fees, they just add them to list for anybody to see.

Ditto. The kid that wrote the article probably rents and has no idea what is going on with property taxes to get clarifications from the home owners in the article.

It depends on where you live in Lake Cty. Lake Forest, Libertyville, Deerfield some parts of Gurnee are going to be expensive. Farther out west in the county, the taxes are a little lower, but getting worse each passing year.
