It’s education center provides an important research facility for local history, as well as serving as an important advocate for local conservancy.
That history includes and early popularity due to the presence of roadhouses. Morton Grove first became popular in the early part of the 20th Century for its gambling and other entertainment. As those venues attracted other businesses, the Morton Grove Chamber of Commerce & Industry was developed in 1926. With the advent of commuter trains and highways after WWII, the roadhouses dwindled. The population swelled as the Village was recognized as a great place to live and raise a family with good values yet easy access to city amenities. The Village boasts a median household income of around $91,000 and an average home value of over $333,000. Students attend highly-ranked schools, including Niles East and North High Schools in Skokie, and Maine East High School in Park Ridge.
The Village is served by an active parks department and library system, which supplement the schools with a variety of physical and educational activities for all ages, including a comprehensive health, wellness and activities program for senior citizens.
