Oak Forest and Crestwood share asimilar heritage, with historiesstretching back to the early 19th
century. Around this time, the region wasspeckled with farms and new towns beganspringing up with the coming of therailroad. Many of Oak Forest(originally known asCooper’s Grove) andcurrent-day Crestwood’searliest settlers traveledfrom Germany to takeadvantage of the region’shigh quality land – as manyof these settlers were farmers.
By the early 20th century, the area beganexperiencing much in the way ofresidential development. The MidlothianCountry Club was established, and in1927, residents living around the countryclub incorporated as the village ofMidlothian. A small population just northalso chose to incorporate as a village –and thus, in 1928, the village ofCrestwood was born.
In 1947, Oak Forest incorporated as avillage. Between 1950 and 1970, bothOak Forest and Crestwood’s populationdoubled. More subdivisions, the OakForest Hospital, a new high school district
and many other new convenienceswere all significant products of
this era. Additionally, roadimprovement projects wereset in place throughout thearea, and the much-anticipated Interstate 80opened the area to further
development. In 1971, thevillage of Oak Forest was
officially incorporated as a city.
As 2000 approached, the mass exodusinto many southern suburbs graduallydecreased—but not here. Oak Forest andCrestwood continue to grow and develop,as many young families are establishinghouseholds here. The area attracts newresidents and businesses for the samereasons that it had originally been soughtout – its natural beauty, ideal location, theavailability of affordable real estate and,most importantly, its valued residents.
