Waukegan is Lake County's largest city and seat, with older housing stock concentrated in the downtown area near the lakefront. Many homes in Waukegan date to the early 20th century, generating heavier demo loads with plaster and masonry. The city is one of the more affordable Lake County communities, which drives steady renovation and flip activity.
