Incorporated in 1958, the Village of Hanover Park has grown from a small
bedroom community in Cook County to a thriving suburban town with a
population of 35,579, whose residential and commerical development has
spilled over into DuPage County as well. Although it is just five square
miles in size, Hanover Park is crisscrossed by four townships, seven
school districts, three park districts and two library districts.
Before its incorporation, Hanover Park was an "outcropping" of
Ontarioville, which pre-dated Hanover Park by nearly a full century. In
an unusual twist of history, however, it was Hanover Park that later
assimilated Ontarioville, officially incorporating the smaller community
into its boundaries in 1982.
Today, one of the most attractive aspects of living in Hanover Park
continues to be the affordability of homes for young families moving
into the community. The median age in Hanover Park is 28 and the average
family income is $49,916.
Homebuyers are able to choose from a wide range of housing, from raised
ranches and split levels, to condominiums, to townhomes, condominiums
and duplexes. The average 1997 sale price for a single family home was
$136,766, while condominium and townhome prices averaged out at $94,491.
Apartment rentals are available for an average cost of $562 per month.

of industries providing employment, which include manufacturing, retail

management services, and educational, health and social services. Some

Scientific, Canon and G.E. Transportation. Hanover Park's seven school
districts serving students grades K-12 are renowned for their dedication
to providing excellent education. The Hanover Park District also

outdoor tennis courts, racquetball courts, swimming pools, football
fields, recreation buildings, outdoor ice rinks, softball fields, soccer
fields, basketball courts and picnic areas. For outdoor enthusiasts
thousands of acres of forest preserves provide bird refuges, natural
wildlife areas, horseback and bike trails, boating, fishing, hiking, and
picnicking. One of the big annual highlights for Hanover Park residents
is the Harvest Fest, held on Labor Day weekend. The event's big-name
entertainment, carnival and plethora of food booths help to attract
