Limestone village, IL in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Limestone village is a small town in Illinois, with 1,338 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #613 of 1,462 ranked by population — larger than 58% of them. The median age here is 41.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Limestone village earn a median of $95,625 a year, 21.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 29% 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 5.7% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Limestone village is valued at $212,600, 29.9% below the national figure and 19% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,577 a month, 12.2% above the national figure, or roughly $18,924 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.8% 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 2.2×, 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. 95.4% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
