About ZIP code 60537

The housing stock consists of predominantly single-family detached homes. Most homes were built in the 2000s, giving the area an established character. Median home value is $187,500. Owner-occupancy is high at 93%, well above the national average.

The gap between median ($79,091) and mean household income suggests income inequality — a small number of higher earners pull the average up.
