At the June 2026 Zillow endpoint, ZIP 60025 ZORI is $2,497 per month, following a 9.2% exact same-month increase over one year. ZORI is a typical observed asking-rent index blended across rental types, so it is a market indicator rather than a quote for an identically configured home. The three-year same-month annualized change is 8.2%, and the five-year measure is 8.3%. Recent direction therefore confirms, rather than breaks from, the longer upward path: the latest one-year pace is slightly faster, while the three- and five-year readings are nearly aligned. These are backward-looking ZIP observations, not a forecast of rents or an investment recommendation.
That upward path is not a low-variation series. Across the history through this endpoint, annualized variability of monthly returns is 4.3%, and the maximum drawdown was -4.7%; the history category is high variability. Coverage is 100%, supporting the calculation across the available run, but it does not make any one current reading permanent. The transparent national discovery ranks among history-eligible ZIPs are 43 for momentum, 2,701 for stability and 832 for the balanced measure, where lower rank is higher. Together, rapid historical growth and weak stability argue for less confidence in a single current-rent snapshot as an enduring baseline than its headline rise alone suggests.
The five-digit label is both Zillow’s ZIP market identifier and the match for the Census ZCTA used here. A ZCTA is a statistical area and is not identical to a USPS delivery ZIP. In the ACS 2024 five-year survey, median gross rent is $1,753; it covers occupied renter homes and includes selected utilities. The current asking index is 42.4% above that survey median, a difference of universes rather than evidence of a change in like-for-like lease rent. The FY2026 local HUD two-bedroom FMR/SAFMR standard is $2,100, and ZORI is 18.9% above it. HUD FMR/SAFMR is an administrative bedroom-specific standard, not asking rent.
Bedroom figures require a separate treatment. Scaling the ZIP ZORI with the local HUD bedroom ladder produces modelled monthly estimates of $2,069 for a studio, $2,212 for one bedroom, $2,497 for two bedrooms, $3,210 for three bedrooms and $3,722 for four bedrooms. The two-bedroom estimate equals the ZIP index because it is the scaling anchor. These are modelled estimates, never measured bedroom rents: they preserve local HUD relative bedroom steps while carrying the all-types ZIP asking-rent index. They should not be substituted for unit-level advertised rents or assumed to capture building, lease, utility, or condition differences.
Household arithmetic offers a contrasting screen. The matched ACS ZCTA reports median household income of $126,904. Applying a 30% rent-to-income screen to the monthly ZIP index produces required annual income of $99,880, and the index is 23.6% of that median income. This 30% screen is arithmetic, not advice and not an applicant qualification rule. Yet ACS reports that 49.8% of renter-occupied homes have gross-rent burdens at or above that threshold. The aggregate income screen and the burden share can coexist because they summarize different households and rent measures; neither establishes affordability or burden for a particular apartment.
ACS housing composition places that burden reading in a predominantly owner-occupied stock but does not identify a current rental listing. The ZCTA has a 4.2% vacancy rate and a 20.7% renter share. Its housing stock includes 12,082 single-family homes and 2,381 units in large multifamily structures. Those five-year survey counts describe housing and occupied tenure, while vacancy is not proof that a specific unit is rentable, vacant now, or offered at the index. They nonetheless show that ZIP-wide renter evidence comes from a minority of the occupied housing base, an important limit when translating broad indicators to a property.
For wider context only, the City of Glenview context rent is about $2,520, Cook County context rent is $2,336, and the Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN-WI metro context rent is $2,275. Thus the ZIP asking-rent index sits just below the city context but above the county and metro contexts. These are city-, county-, and metro-scope benchmarks, not replacements for the ZIP ZORI, matched ZCTA ACS survey, local HUD standard, or direct ZIP resale record. The placement adds context to the ZIP reading, but it cannot explain rent movements or establish conditions for a particular building.
Direct ZIP for-sale evidence shows a separate resale market. In Redfin’s direct rolling-three-month ZIP observation through June 30, 2026, median sold price was $692,344, up 14.4% year over year; 143 homes sold and median marketing time was 37 days. Inventory was 115 homes and lower than a year earlier, with 2.4 months of supply. The average sale-to-list ratio was 103.5%, and 56.2% of homes sold above list. These are resale liquidity and pricing signals, not rental transactions or rent comps. The common positive directions in sale price and ZORI confirm a directional parallel, but the larger sale-price increase challenges treating rent history as the sole market signal and does not resolve the ACS burden reading. Annualized ZIP ZORI divided by median sold price is 4.33%, solely a cross-source screening ratio, not a measure of property economics. None of the ZIP aggregates verifies a subject address. A property-level reading would require the exact ZIP, legal bedroom count, currently marketed and signed comparable rents, lease term, included utilities, concessions, condition, and actual listing or sale status. The unresolved question is whether those property records align with the modelled size band and current ZIP snapshot.
