License records on the Illinois register located in Union County that the register does not mark expired or revoked and evidences as licenses actually held; median annual wage from BLS OEWS. Illinois publishes a county-level address for only 17% of its license records, so this is a count of the records that place here, not of everyone licensed to work here. The real number is higher. Counts from states that publish addresses for most of their register are not comparable with this one.
