Willow Hill village, IL in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Willow Hill village is a very small community in Illinois, with 266 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1126 of 1,462 ranked by population — larger than 22% of them. The median age here is 27.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Willow Hill village earn a median of $34,464 a year, 56.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 54% below the $74,244 median for the 698 Illinois cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 45.5% 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 Willow Hill village is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 97.7% 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 27.6 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address. With 266 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Willow Hill village against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Willow Hill village because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
