Harwood Heights is a small, fully developed village bordered largely by Chicago on the northwest side, home to about 9,000 residents on compact lots. As a built-out enclave suburb, its boundaries were platted decades ago and a survey brings them current for today’s projects. A plat of survey is a practical necessity for Harwood Heights 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.

Harwood Heights has a population of roughly 9,000 and lies within Norwood Park Township in north Cook County, effectively surrounded by the City of Chicago. The village is fully built out with single-family homes on modest lots, where garages and additions often sit close to the platted line and encroachments are a common survey finding. Recorded plats for Harwood Heights properties are filed with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division following the 2020 consolidation of the Recorder of Deeds. The village 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.
Official resources for Harwood Heights property owners
The village’s compact lots leave limited clearance between structures and the boundary, so a plat of survey precisely locates improvements and confirms the setbacks available before building.
Harwood Heights is located within Norwood Park Township, though plats are recorded county-wide through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division.
Most do. A current plat of survey lets the buyer and title company verify the lot dimensions and check for encroachments before a sale completes.
