During 2023, the latest valuation data available, the neighborhood recorded a total of nine commercial property valuations, culminating in a median property valuation of $31,295. Data shows this is a 35.7% decrease from the 14 registered in the previous year.
In 2023, the commercial property with the highest valuation in Gold Coast was located at 196 E Delaware Pl, valued at $2,290,663. The second and third highest valuations were at 614 N Saint Clair St and 212 W Ohio St, valued at $1,779,834 and $1,205,747, respectively.
Chicago faced a 21.9% decrease in commercial property taxes in 2021, with the 2023 median property valuation of $58,570 serving as a guideline.
Property tax assessments in South suburban Cook County have skyrocketed, with some homeowners facing increases up to 650%. This has led to widespread concern, as articulated by Jami Flaws from Lyons Township, who fears such hikes will force many from their homes. Residents say the tax assessment increases don't match the market values of their homes.
"We probably won't be able to sell our homes because they aren't even close to what the assessment says," Flaws said.
Due to privacy and security concerns, some addresses were not fully disclosed.
For accurate comparisons, property valuations prior to 2023 have been adjusted using average CPI inflation to reflect 2023 dollars.
