Waterloo top the list in SW Illinois with the highest spending per capita in 2017, Illinois State Comptroller financial reports show.

State law requires local governments to self-report financial records each year, including revenue, spending and debt. Spending per capita is calculated to compare budget habits across park districts.

How does your district rank?

About a third of park districts in Illinois have not reported 2017 financials to the state. The rankings include only those park districts with data.
