ZIP 60077 in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

ZIP 60077 is a small city in Cook County, Illinois, with 28,651 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #158 of 1,396 ranked by population — larger than 88% of them. The median age here is 42.8 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 ZIP 60077 earn a median of $80,765 a year, 2.8% above the national figure of $78,538. 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 12.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 60077 is valued at $327,400, 7.9% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,450 a month, 3.1% above the national figure, or roughly $17,400 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.5% 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 4.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 65.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

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.

Reading ZIP 60077 in context

How 60077 sits inside Cook County and Illinois.

ZIP 60077 is tabulated inside Cook County, Illinois, one of 167 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 1,396 across Illinois. This is a mid-sized suburban ZIP inside a county that is split across many delivery areas. County assignment on this page follows the largest share of the ZIP's land area, which matters where a delivery route crosses a county line: mail addressed to 60077 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 60077 reports a median household income of $80,765, 4% below the $84,521 county median, and 11% above the $72,734 typical IL ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $327,400, 9% above the county figure and 123% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,450 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

Illinois charges 6.25% statewide, and local governments overlapping 60077 may add county, city or special-district levies on top. We publish the state floor for this ZIP rather than guessing a combined figure, because ZIP boundaries and taxing-district boundaries were drawn for different purposes and do not line up.

Everything above comes from the Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates for this ZIP Code Tabulation Area, with sales tax rates traced to the state revenue agency. Five-year estimates pool sixty months of responses, so they are stable enough to compare 60077 with its neighbours but always trail the current year, and any value the Census suppressed for sample size is shown as unpublished rather than filled in with a model.
