Ford Heights is a small village in far south Cook County near the Indiana line, home to about 1,800 residents within the county’s southern drainage belt. Its compact residential character and position in the Calumet-area lowlands shape local property work. A plat of survey helps Ford Heights owners confirm their boundaries and their standing relative to the flood maps.
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.
Ford Heights has a population of roughly 1,800 and is coextensive with Bloom Township in the southern reaches of Cook County. The village is small and largely residential, and drainage in the area moves through systems overseen by the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District, so some parcels near waterways can fall within FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas. Recorded plats for Ford Heights properties are filed with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division following the 2020 consolidation of the Recorder of Deeds. Surveys here commonly confirm platted lot lines and setbacks for additions and fences while addressing flood determinations near the waterways.
Official resources for Ford Heights property owners
Ford Heights corresponds to Bloom Township, though plats are recorded county-wide through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division.
Owners use one to confirm boundary lines, locate the home and improvements, identify easements, and support permits and closings.
Parcels near local waterways may lie within a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, which a surveyor can determine and document if needed.
