Shiloh, Illinois, a city with a population of 19,661 as of 2022, has one Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) funded affordable housing project. This project provides 48 affordable units, all designated as low-income units. Based on the estimated housing inventory of 7,533 units, the LIHTC-funded affordable housing comprises approximately 0.64% of the city's housing stock.
The city has received $570,415 in project tax credits from the LIHTC program for affordable housing. This translates to an average federal funding of $570,415 per project and $11,884 per unit. Shiloh holds 0.07% of the total state LIHTC funding, indicating a relatively small share of Illinois' affordable housing resources.
The sole LIHTC-funded project in Shiloh is Wingate Manor I, completed in 2010. This project represents the entire LIHTC-funded affordable housing inventory in the city over the past decade. Wingate Manor I consists of 48 units, including 15 one-bedroom units and 33 two-bedroom units, providing options for different household sizes.
Over the past decade, Shiloh has experienced modest population growth, increasing from 18,204 in 2013 to 19,661 in 2022. The median income has fluctuated but generally remained high, rising from $86,919 in 2013 to $87,075 in 2022, suggesting a relatively affluent community.
The city has maintained a majority white population, though it has slightly decreased from 67% in 2013 to 62% in 2022. The Black population has remained relatively stable at around 23-26% during this period. There has been a small increase in the Hispanic population, growing from 3% in 2013 to 6% in 2022.
The stable economic conditions and relatively high median income may explain the limited development of additional LIHTC projects in the past decade, as the need for low-income housing might not have significantly increased.
Shiloh's LIHTC-funded affordable housing inventory consists of a single project, Wingate Manor I, completed in 2010. This project provides 48 low-income units, representing a small fraction of the city's estimated housing stock. The city has received a modest amount of LIHTC funding, reflecting its small share of Illinois' affordable housing resources. While the population has grown slightly over the past decade, the high median income and stable racial demographics suggest that the demand for additional low-income housing may not have significantly increased since the completion of Wingate Manor I.
