We built LOKAL to pull each Illinois metro's numbers straight from Zillow Research, so an agent and a client read from the same source. Across the 1 Illinois metro we track, median sale prices stand at $375K for July 2026. In Chicago, the $375K median compares with roughly $336K a year earlier, in 2025. Zillow Research has published these city-level series monthly since 2018, which is what lets us show month-over-month and year-over-year change here in 2026. We refresh every metro monthly. For complementary demographics on each Illinois area (population, median household income, owner-occupancy), see the U.S. Census Bureau. LOKAL is independent and not affiliated with Zillow; always verify against your MLS before you publish.
