Westchester, Illinois
Westchester is a village in Cook County, Illinois, United States. It is a western suburb of Chicago. The population was 16,892 at the 2020 census. The current Village President is Nick Steker, serving in the special role of acting president after the death of the previous president Frank Perry from cancer. History The area now known as Westchester was occupied by German farmers beginning in the mid-19th century.

But in 1956 the federal government began postwar construction of the Interstate Highway System, resulting ...
