IL %LEP Map (Description)

This map illustrates the three judicial districts of Illinois:

  • Illinois Central District-Light Yellow Shading
  • Illinois Northern District-Dark Orange Shading
  • Illinois Southern District-Light Yellow Shading

Each district is color shaded to indicate the percent of limited English proficient (LEP) persons in the district. We have defined LEP persons as individuals five years and over who speak a language other than English at home and who have indicated that they speak English less than very well (LVW). For each judicial district, we have also provided a pie chart that breaks down the top five languages spoken in the district (as a percentage of the total number of LEP individuals in the area) with the remaining languages in a sixth category called “Other”.

Percentages:

The colors correspond to percentage of LEP individuals in the district as follows:

  • Pale White: (<=1%)
  • Light Yellow: (>1% AND <=3%)
  • Pale Orange: (>3% AND <=5%)
  • Orange: (>5% AND <=10%)
  • Dark Orange: (>10% AND <=15%)
  • Brown: (>15% AND <=25%)
  • Dark Brown: (>25%)

IL Raw Count Map (Description)

This map illustrates the three judicial districts of Illinois:

  • Illinois Central District-Pale White Shading
  • Illinois Northern District-Brown Shading
  • Illinois Southern District-Pale White Shading

Each district is color shaded to indicate the total number of limited English proficient (LEP) persons in the district. We have defined LEP persons as individuals five years and older who speak a language other than English at home and who have indicated that they speak English less than very well (LVW). For each judicial district, we have also provided a pie chart that breaks down the top five languages spoken in the district (according to the total number of each language spoken) with the remaining languages in a sixth category called “Other”.

Raw Counts:

The colors correspond to the total number of LEP individuals in the district as follows:

  • Pale White: (<=50K)
  • Light Yellow: (>50K AND <=150K)
  • Pale Orange: (>150K AND <=250K)
  • Orange: (>250K AND<=500K)
  • Dark Orange: (>500K AND <= 1M)
  • Brown: (>1M AND <=3M)
  • Dark Brown: (>3M)

The judicial districts in Illinois are shaded to indicate either number or percent of limited English proficient (LEP) persons in the district. We have defined LEP persons as individuals five years or older who speak a language other than English at home and who have indicated that they speak English less than very well (LVW). The tables explain the raw count number and percentage of LEP persons by language spoken for each of Illinois’s three judicial districts.
