Green Valley village, IL in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Green Valley village is a very small community in Illinois, with 700 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #828 of 1,462 ranked by population — larger than 43% of them. The median age here is 34.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in Green Valley village earn a median of $62,986 a year, 19.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 15% below 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 19.7% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.
The typical owner-occupied home in Green Valley village is valued at $116,700, 61.5% below the national figure and 35% below the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $725 a month, 48.4% below the national figure, or roughly $8,700 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.8% 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 1.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 64% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
With 700 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Green Valley village against its county rather than against national figures.
