Burr Ridge, IL population, income and ZIP codes

Burr Ridge village is a mid-size town in Illinois, with 11,119 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #206 of 1,462 ranked by population — larger than 85% of them. The median age here is 58.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Burr Ridge village earn a median of $154,508 a year, 96.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 108% above 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 5.2% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Burr Ridge village is valued at $694,800, 129% above the national figure and 288% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $3,000 a month, 113.4% above the national figure, or roughly $36,000 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23.3% 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 4.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 94.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

A median age of 58.1 puts Burr Ridge village well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages.
