How these numbers are made

Property tax uses Cook County's 2025 final rates for tax code 13039 (Village of Tinley Park, Bremen Township, School District 146, High School District 228, Tinley Park Park District; total 12.657733 per $100 of equalized assessed value). Orland Township codes (District 140, High School 230) total 9.3 to 10.9 and Rich Township or Will County parcels differ; special service areas are not included.
The starting value is the Assessor's 2023 median market value of Bremen Township single-family homes ($199,000) at 10% assessed value times the 2025 equalization factor of 3.0300; the $10,000 Homeowner Exemption comes off that value.
Water uses the Village's bi-monthly table effective 6/1/26: base water $25.58 per bill (halved to $12.79 a month) and the per-1,000-gallon tiers 1-7, 8-12, 13-22 and 23+ (breakpoints halved to monthly). Sewer is $4.79 per bill plus $2.28 per 1,000 gallons. The stormwater base is $1.54 per bill; the $0.39 per 1,000 gallons stormwater usage charge is added to each water tier, and the $9.00 per bill infrastructure administrative fee is halved to $4.50 a month.
Garbage is Homewood Disposal's rate of $31.16 a month in effect from Oct. 1, 2026. Cook County sewer treatment is in the MWRD property tax line above.
Electricity is ComEd delivery charges plus the October 2026 to May 2027 price to compare; gas is Nicor Gas Rate 1: $21.30 a month plus 24.44 cents distribution and the October 2026 supply cost of 33 cents per therm. Riders, any municipal utility tax and homeowners insurance are not included: the Village's taxes page lists no electricity or gas tax and no official premium survey was found.
Nothing here is legal, tax or insurance advice.
