Animals Kenilworth, Illinois

It is illegal for a rooster to crow within city limits.

Status: Still Enforced / On the Books

The Law Explained

Kenilworth, one of the wealthiest and quietest suburbs of Chicago, does not tolerate farm noises. An ordinance specifically prohibits roosters from crowing to protect the peace and quiet of the local residents. If a resident insists on keeping poultry, they must somehow ensure the male birds remain entirely silent, which effectively bans them.
