Hometown is one of the smallest municipalities in Cook County by area, a compact southwest-suburban city of about 4,300 built almost entirely as a planned postwar community. Its tightly platted lots reflect that origin, and a survey brings those recorded lines current for any project. A plat of survey is a practical requirement for Hometown owners before building or selling.
A plat of survey is a drawing, signed and sealed by a licensed Illinois land surveyor, that locates the corners and boundary lines of your lot and depicts the buildings, driveways, fences and recorded easements on the property. It is the document lenders, title companies and municipal permit desks rely on.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your closing or permit.
Hometown has a population of roughly 4,300 and lies within Worth Township in southwest Cook County, occupying an unusually small footprint. The city was developed as a compact planned community of similar homes on uniform, modest lots, where side-yard clearances are tight and additions or garages frequently raise setback and encroachment questions. Recorded plats for Hometown properties are filed with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division after the Recorder of Deeds merged into the Clerk’s office in 2020. Hometown lies within drainage overseen by the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District, and while much of it sits away from major waterways, a survey remains the dependable way to confirm setbacks and lot lines.
