Logan Square is one of many communities in which residents are facing a significant increase in their property taxes.
The area used to be predominantly Latino, but over the years that number has decreased to about 36%.
Some longtime Latino residents say they don’t know how long they will be able to keep paying property tax hikes, maintain a home and survive.
“Now we have to choose between putting our kids through college and paying for the home, fixing our home or paying our taxes,” said Norma Rios-Sierra, a Logan Square resident who also grew up in the area.
