Bridgeview village, IL in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Bridgeview village is a mid-size town in Illinois, with 16,721 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #151 of 1,462 ranked by population — larger than 89% of them. The median age here is 40.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.
Households in Bridgeview village earn a median of $65,153 a year, 17% below the national figure of $78,538 and 12% below the $74,244 median for the 698 Illinois cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 13.2% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Bridgeview village is valued at $234,000, 22.9% below the national figure and 31% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,139 a month, 19% below the national figure, or roughly $13,668 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 65.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
