Hindale Profile Hinsdale Real Estate Hinsdale Maps and Neighborhoods Hinsdale Schools Hinsdale Links Hinsdale ProfileHinsdale, Illinois is located 20 miles
west of Chicago and
can be easily accessed by I 294 or I 55. The eastern boundary of
Hinsdale is I-294. The western boundary is Route 83. Hinsdale is
surrounded by Western Springs to the east, Clarendon Hills to the west, Burr Ridge to the south and Oak Brook to the north.
Incorporated in 1873, Hinsdale is an affluent Chicago
Suburb located mostly in Du Page County but a small portion lies in
Cook County. The town is often referred to as the
"epicenter" of
the teardown phenomenon that begun in the 1980's and spread nationally,
with well more than 25% of its homes having been replaced with larger,
newer homes mostly valued at $1mm and above.
Hinsdale has a quaint downtown that
contains boutique
shops and restaurants. Part of the popularity is because it is only a
20-minute train ride from downtown Hinsdale to downtown Chicago.
Hinsdale is also known for its excellent
public school system, ranked among the best on all levels in the state
of Illinois. Hinsdale is considered an urban
area with mostly single family homes, some townhouses and a few small
apartment buildings. The size of most homes is medium with three or
four bedrooms, and the rest being large homes with 5 or more bedrooms.
Hinsdale is home to hundreds of properties valued over $1 million. In
the last 24 months (since June 2010), over 150 homes of the homes sold
were sold for over $1 million. The
housing stock is a combination of newly constructed custom homes, well
established homes that were built between 1940-1969, and some
historical homes built earlier than 1939. Most homes are owner
occupied. Households are mainly comprised of families with school aged
children as well as YUPPIES. Hinsdale contains some of the top 15%
wealthiest folks in the country with most of the professions of its
residents being executives.
