The Village of Justice, incorporated on October 17, 1911, is a family, business, and community friendly suburb located in southwest suburban Cook County, Illinois. The Village grew along Archer Road, which began as an Indian trail, then stage coach route, and later became a streetcar roadway, and today is one of the oldest roads in Cook County and remains a key regional arterial roadway connecting Chicago through multiple surrounding communities to Joliet, Illinois. Located just south of the I-55/US 12-20-45 Interchange, the Village of Justice provides easy access to I-294 and is considered a "Transportation Hub" of the Southwest Chicago suburbs. In addition to I-294, I-55, and US 12-20-45, some of the main Chicagoland arterials passing through the Village of Justice include Archer Road, 79th Street, Roberts Road, and 88th Avenue. With convenient access to these arterials, it is understandable how various businesses can blossom here. The Illinois & Michigan (I&M) Canal forms the Village's northwest border and the community is divided into east and west sections by the Illinois Tollway.
The current population is approximately 13,001 - a growth of 6.63% since the year 2000. There are approximately 4,362 households with a median household income of $52,203. Senior citizens age 65 and older comprise approximately 7.14% (928) of the total population. Children and young adults under the age of 19 make up 29.79% (3,873) of the population.The Village of Justice is home to over 250 small businesses that include grocery, food service, restaurants and taverns, hair stylists, dry cleaners, florists, gas stations with mini marts, churches, cemeteries, a funeral home, monument companies, health care facilities, laundromats, tattoo parlors, vehicle repair establishments, construction trades, and general service business establishments.
