During 2023, the latest valuation data available, the neighborhood recorded a total of seven residential property valuations, culminating in a median property valuation of $18,000.
In 2023, two residential properties in Ashburn shared the top valuation of $19,000, located at 2309 W 80TH ST and 2226 W 80TH ST. Additionally, two properties tied for the second highest valuation of $18,000, including one at 2222 W 80TH PL.
Chicago faced a 7.1% decrease in residential property taxes in 2021, with the 2023 median property valuation of $22,000 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.
