Parcels with property tax-exempt status across all of Cook County per tax year, from Tax Year 2022 on, with geographic coordinates and addresses.

Properties of religious, charitable, and educational organizations, as well as units of federal, state and local governments, can be eligible for exemption from property taxes. The Illinois Department of Revenue (IDOR) ultimately grants qualified organizations with property tax exempt status, with additional administration by the Board of Review and/or Assessor. Learn more here, and see the Assessor's guidance for religious organizations here.

When working with Parcel Index Numbers (PINs) make sure to zero-pad them to 14 digits. Some datasets may lose leading zeros for PINs when downloaded.

Additional notes:

• Parcel entroids are based on Cook County parcel shapefiles.


• Newer properties may be missing a mailing or property address, as they need to be assigned one by the postal service.


• Exempt status for parcels changes regularly depending on the use and owner of a given parcel. Please contact Assessor.Exempt@cookcountyil.gov if you need additional information about parcels excluded from this dataset.


• Data will be updated monthly.


• This dataset contains data for the current tax year, which may not yet be complete or final. Assessed values and property tax-exempt status for any given year are subject to change until review and certification of values by the Cook County Board of Review, though there are a few rare circumstances where values may change for the current or past years after that.


• Rowcount for a given year is final once the Assessor has certified the assessment roll all townships.


• Current property class codes, their levels of assessment, and descriptions can be found on the Assessor's website. Note that class codes details can change across time.

Commercial valuation data collected and maintained by the Cook County Assessor's Office, from 2021 to present. The office uses this data primarily for valuation and reporting. This dataset consolidates the individual Excel workbooks available on the Assessor's website into a single shared format. Properties are valued using similar valuation methods within each modelgroup, per township, per year (in the year the township is reassessed). This dataset has been cleaned minimally, only enough to fit the source Excel workbooks together - because models are updated for each township in the year it is reassessed, users should expect inconsistencies within columns across time and townships.

When working with Parcel Index Numbers (PINs) make sure to zero-pad them to 14 digits. Some datasets may lose leading zeros for PINs when downloaded.

This data is property-level. Each 14-digit key PIN represents one commercial property. Commercial properties can and often do encompass multiple PINs. Additional notes:

• Current property class codes, their levels of assessment, and descriptions can be found on the Assessor's website. Note that class codes details can change across time.


• Data will be updated yearly, once the Assessor has finished mailing first pass values. If users need more up-to-date information they can access it through the Assessor's website.


• The Assessor's Office reassesses roughly one third of the county (a triad) each year. For commercial valuations, this means each year of data only contain the triad that was reassessed that year. Which triads and their constituent townships have been reassessed recently as well the year of their reassessment can be found in the Assessor's assessment calendar.


• Commercial properties are calculated by first determining a property’s use (office, retail, apartments, industrial, etc.), then the property is grouped with similar or like-kind property types. Next, income generated by the property such as rent or incidental income streams like parking or advertising signage is examined. Next, market-level vacancy based on location and property type is examined. In addition, new construction that has not yet been leased is also considered. Finally, expenses such as property taxes, insurance, repair and maintenance costs, property management fees, and service expenditures for professional services are examined. Once a snapshot of a property’s income statement is captured based on market data, a standard valuation metric called a “capitalization rate” to convert income to value is applied.


• This data was used to produce initial valuations mailed to property owners. It does not incorporate any subsequent changes to a property’s class, characteristics, valuation, or assessed value from appeals.

Township codes can be found in the legend of this map.

Cook County 10-digit parcels with attached distances to various spatial features.

When working with 10-digit Parcel Index Numbers (PINs) make sure to zero-pad them to 10 digits. Some datasets may lose leading zeros for PINs when downloaded. 10-digit PINs do not identify individual condominium units.

Additional notes:

• Centroids are based on Cook County parcel shapefiles.


• Older properties may be missing coordinates and thus also missing attached spatial data (usually they are missing a parcel boundary in the shapefile).


• Attached spatial data does NOT all go back to 2000. It is only available for more recent years, primarily those after 2012.


• This dataset contains data for the current tax year, which may not yet be complete or final. Assessed values for any given year are subject to change until review and certification of values by the Cook County Board of Review, though there are a few rare circumstances where values may change for the current or past years after that.


• Rowcount for a given year is final once the Assessor has certified the assessment roll all townships.


• Data will be updated annually as new parcel shapefiles are made available.

A complete, historic universe of Cook County parcels with attached geographic, governmental, and spatial data.

When working with Parcel Index Numbers (PINs) make sure to zero-pad them to 14 digits. Some datasets may lose leading zeros for PINs when downloaded.

Additional notes:

• Non-taxing district data is attached via spatial join (st_contains) to each parcel's centroid.


• Tax district data (school district, park district, municipality, etc.) are attached by a parcel's assigned tax code.


• Centroids are based on Cook County parcel shapefiles.


• Older properties may be missing coordinates and thus also missing attached spatial data (usually they are missing a parcel boundary in the shapefile).


• Newer properties may be missing a mailing or property address, as they need to be assigned one by the postal service.


• This dataset contains data for the current tax year, which may not yet be complete or final. Assessed values for any given year are subject to change until review and certification of values by the Cook County Board of Review, though there are a few rare circumstances where values may change for the current or past years after that.


• Rowcount for a given year is final once the Assessor has certified the assessment roll all townships.


• Data will be updated monthly.


• Depending on the time of year, some third-party and internal data will be missing for the most recent year. Assessments mailed this year represent values from last year, so this isn't an issue. By the time the Data Department models values for this year, those data will have populated.


• Current property class codes, their levels of assessment, and descriptions can be found on the Assessor's website. Note that class codes details can change across time.


• Due to decrepencies between the systems used by the Assessor and Clerk's offices, tax_district_code is not currently up-to-date in this table.

Situs and mailing addresses of Cook County parcels. Used by the Assessor's office to mail assessment notices.

When working with Parcel Index Numbers (PINs) make sure to zero-pad them to 14 digits. Some datasets may lose leading zeros for PINs when downloaded.

Additional notes:

• Mailing addresses can be out of date or fail to properly reflect deed transfers.


• Newer properties may be missing a mailing or property address, as they need to be assigned one by the postal service.


• This dataset contains data for the current tax year, which may not yet be complete or final. Assessed values for any given year are subject to change until review and certification of values by the Cook County Board of Review, though there are a few rare circumstances where values may change for the current or past years after that.


• Rowcount for a given year is final once the Assessor has certified the assessment roll all townships.


• Data will be updated monthly.

Land, building, and total assessed values, pre and post-appeal with the Cook County Assessor’s office, for all Cook County parcels, from 1999 to present. The Assessor's Office uses these values for reporting, evaluating assessment performance over time, and research.

When working with Parcel Identification Numbers (PINs) make sure to zero-pad them to 14 digits. Some datasets may lose leading zeros for PINs when downloaded.

This data is parcel-level. Each row contains the assessed values for a single PIN for a single year pre and post-appeal. Important notes:

• Each row includes two stages: 1) mailed, these are the initial assessed values (AVs) estimated by the Assessor's Office and mailed to taxpayers. The columns mailed_bldg, mailed_land, and mailed_tot are the AVs for the building, land, and total, at the mailed stage. 2) certified, these are values after the Assessor's Office closes appeals. The columns certified_bldg, certified_land, and certified_tot are the AVs for the building, land, and total, after the Assessor has completed appeal decisions.


• Values in this dataset are not final assessed values for a given year as they are still subject to change if a taxpayer appeals to the Cook County Board of Review. At present, this dataset does not contain appeal decisions from this final third stage. However, the final stage AVs and appeal decisions can be downloaded from the Board of Review Appeal Decision History dataset.


• Due to the current transition from the county's legacy system to a modern system of record, appeal data is sparse prior to 2021. Values and change/no change decisions are available, but the reason, agent, and type fields will only be complete once the new system has been successfully batch updated with complete historical data.


• The values in this data are assessed values, NOT market values. Assessed values must be adjusted by their level of assessment to arrive at market value. Note that levels of assessment have changed throughout the time period covered by this data set.


• This data set will be updated monthly regardless of the Assessor's mailing and certification schedule. There may be small discrepancies between the Assessor's site and this data set, as each pulls from a slightly different system. If you find a discrepancy, please email the Data Department using the contact link below.


• This dataset contains data for the current tax year, which may not yet be complete or final. Assessed values for any given year are subject to change until review and certification of values by the Cook County Board of Review, though there are a few rare circumstances where values may change for the current or past years after that.


• Rowcount for a given year is final once the Assessor has certified the assessment roll all townships.


• Current property class codes, their levels of assessment, and descriptions can be found on the Assessor's website. Note that class codes details can change across time.
