Regional Description of Fair Housing Complaints
HUD FHEO five-year complaint data lists the municipality in which the offending act
occurred. Complaints in Lake County have been filed in 27 of the 52 incorporated
municipalities plus one from unincorporated Ingleside. Though the highest number of
complaints occurred in more highly populated municipalities, the per-capita complaint
data shows a higher concentration in the north-central part of the County. This includes
the communities of Gurnee and Grayslake as well as in Zion. Though Bannockburn
shows high per-capita complaint data, this is a result of a small population size, with one
complaint filed over a period of five years. There are 24 incorporated municipalities in
Lake County that did not receive a complaint during that five-year period.
