Burr Ridge IL 60527

History Snapshot

 

In August 1962 the town was named Burr Ridge because of a population of burr oak trees on a ridge along County Line Road near Plainfield Road. The burr oak leaf became the Village emblem. 

Burr Ridge is about 23 miles southwest of the Loop and almost 7 square miles. General boundaries are: north..55th Street, east - Wolf Road, west.- Madison Street (and Route 83 in the southern portion of the Village), south.- approximately 97th Street. 

Even as late as the early 1950's it was mostly open land, with pig and dairy farms. Today, it is known for its towering Burr Oak trees . a bird lovers paradise, with many ponds and lots of open space that provide a country feeling among its residents, with big city advantages nearby.

Burr Ridge is predominately well maintained upscale single family homes . some in gated communities, condominiums, and retirement communities. It has enjoyed great appreciation over the years.
