Assessment Persistence

Daniel McMillen, Ruchi Singh
This analysis, by Daniel McMillen and Ruchi Singh, of residential assessment ratios in Cook County, Illinois for 1976 - 2020 suggests that unusually low and high assessment ratios display only a modest amount of persistence over time. Mean and median assessment rates were consistently lower than statutory rates throughout this time, apart from a short period during the Great Recessions. While lowpriced properties tend to have higher assessment rates than high-priced homes, they also are much more variable. High assessment rates in one assessment year are frequently followed by lower rates for the same property in subsequent years.
