What Makes River Forest a Popular Place to Live?
River Forest packs a lot into a relatively small footprint. The Village covers about 2.5 square miles and had a 2020 Census population of 11,717. Census data also shows that River Forest has a highly educated population, with roughly 73% of adults age 25 and older holding a bachelor’s degree or higher. [U.S. Census Bureau]
The Village’s location is another advantage for residents. According to the Village of River Forest, downtown Chicago is approximately 10 minutes away by I-290 and about 20 minutes by CTA Green Line. Metra and Pace also provide additional transportation options, while both O’Hare and Midway airports are within easy reach. [Village of River Forest]
For movers, that mix means River Forest can offer something that is increasingly hard to find: a residential community with plenty of local character that is still closely connected to Chicago. Whether you’re coming from the city, another Chicagoland suburb, or another state altogether, the area has its own personality worth getting to know.
Moving Around River Forest and the Western Suburbs
One of the advantages of hiring a local River Forest moving company is familiarity with the surrounding area. River Forest sits alongside Oak Park, Forest Park, Elmwood Park, River Grove, and Maywood, making moves between nearby communities relatively common. Knowing the area can help when you’re coordinating a move that involves multiple stops, storage, or a transition between homes.

If your move starts in River Forest but ends somewhere else in the region, our Chicago movers can help you plan the relocation from beginning to end.
