How these numbers are made

Property tax uses Kane County's 2025 tax code RU013 (Rutland Township, Pingree Grove village, Community Unit School District 300, Elgin Community College, Ella Johnson Library, Pingree Grove & Countryside Fire Protection District; total 6.236716 per $100 including a tiny negative Rutland solid waste district rate of -0.000922 not listed separately; equalized assessed value). The many other RU codes listed for the village carry the same rate; part of the village is in Plato Township with School District 301.
The starting value is the Census/ACS median home value (owner-reported survey estimate, via Data USA, $320,800) times the 33.33% level of assessment; it is not a Kane County assessed value or sale price. The $8,000 general homestead exemption comes off it.
Water and sewer is the Village's combined rate: $45 a month plus $9.15 per 1,000 gallons (water $3.93, sewer $5.22), in effect since November 1, 2025; the Village's automatic annual increase ordinance (2019-O-31) ran through the November 1, 2025 adjustment.
Trash is the Flood Brothers single-family contract rate for 7/1/26-6/30/27, billed directly by Flood Brothers, not on the tax bill.
Electricity: ComEd delivery customer and metering charges, per-kWh delivery and IEDT, the October 2026 price to compare, plus state and Pingree Grove municipal tax additions. Gas: Nicor Rate 1 with the October 2026 supply cost plus the 5.15% municipal tax. Usage is the EIA average.
Nothing here is legal, tax or insurance advice.
