Crown Point spans 17.725 square miles, and it had a population of just over 27,000 people as of the most recent census. Crown Point was first settled in 1834, and it has grown to be a thriving community over the course of its lengthy history.

Because of its convenient location, Crown Point is not just the county seat of Lake County, but is also considered to be the “hub” of the area.

In total, 11.7 percent of households in the area were lived in by a senior 65 or older who was living alone.  As people in Crown Point age, they may experience health issues that cause cognitive or physical decline.

You may also need to go to probate court for other legal matters, such as when you must become a guardian or conservator for a loved one who has become incapacitated.

There are different local probate courts, and you will need to go to the Lake County probate court to probate a will or handle other legal issues affecting Crown Point residents.
