Its property crime score is 55.3, which is significantly higher than the national average of 38.1.

- While the total cost of living in Lincolnwood is significantly higher than the U.S. average, most of that is due to high real estate and housing costs. Groceries, health care and utilities tend to be slightly less expensive than average.
