Lisle Library Tax Per Capita Among Highest in Chicago Region



Lisle Watchdog takes a look at how the local property tax per capita of the Lisle Library compares to other libraries in the Chicago region.

Data was obtained from the Illinois Secretary of State and State Librarian for the 2011 year.

Libraries in Chicago Metro Area communities with populations below 8,000 people were excluded from the comparative study.

Of 163 libraries, the Lisle Library ranks #18 (top 11%) in highest property tax per capita.
