The North Chicago and Waukegan maps were created using the U.S. Census Bureau’s
“OnTheMap” tool, with Census data from 2011. North Chicago has two areas of
employment concentration: one located in the north that contains multiple nodes, and
one in the south. Waukegan’s map shows many different areas of employment
concentration, primarily in the southern and eastern portions of the city. The most
significant concentrations are located on the eastern side and include the historic
downtown, where Lake County government offices are situated. The location of these
job concentrations impact the local workforce and housing.
