The quick read
Reading Antioch, IL beyond the headline numbers
Antioch sits inside Lake County, Illinois, at roughly 42.48°N, -88.10°W. Population 14,329, $108,899 median household income. Median home value $306,700, median rent $1,129. Poverty rate 7.9%, read against that income figure since two cities on the same median can differ underneath it.
At 7.9%, poverty in Antioch, IL runs below the midpoint of reporting cities -- enough to matter locally, not enough to dominate the city's profile.
Housing is inexpensive against local pay -- the median home in Antioch runs about 2.8 years of median household income, in the cheapest quarter of reporting cities.
20.1% of Antioch workers report working from home, the highest quarter of reporting cities. Where that share runs this high, local income increasingly reflects employers located somewhere else.
Among the CDC measures on this page, physical inactivity departs furthest from its peer median: 18.7% in Antioch, the lowest-prevalence quarter of the 3,759 cities reporting that measure.
