Deerfield village, IL in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Deerfield village is a mid-size town in Illinois, with 19,185 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #129 of 1,462 ranked by population — larger than 91% of them. The median age here is 44.5 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 Deerfield village earn a median of $189,705 a year, 141.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 156% above the $74,244 median for the 698 Illinois cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 2.5% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Deerfield village is valued at $608,600, 100.6% above the national figure and 240% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,345 a month, 66.8% above the national figure, or roughly $28,140 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 83.3% 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.
