HUBZone designation in Illinois

How do I check if an address in Illinois is in a HUBZone?

HUBZone designation is determined at the address (census-tract) level by the U.S. Small Business Administration, not at the county level. Two addresses on the same street can have different status — county-level shorthand (Illinois or otherwise) does not give you a definitive answer.

Use the official SBA HUBZone map to look up any specific address: maps.certify.sba.gov/hubzone/map. The map reflects current designations including any redesignated, qualified-disaster, or governor-petitioned areas that may differ from prior cycles.

To pursue HUBZone-set-aside opportunities in Illinois once you have confirmed eligibility, see HUBZone Set-Aside Contracts or browse the HUBZone glossary entry.
