Addison is a village in DuPage County, Illinois, United States. The population was 35,702 at the 2020 Census.[3] It is part of the Chicago metropolitan area.

History

The village was incorporated in 1884, at which time it had a population of 400.[4] The community itself was originally named Dunkley's Grove after the settler Hezekiah Dunklee,[5] and was renamed after a town in England[5] or Addison, New York.[6] In 1832, Winfield Scott built Army Trail Road on top of a Potawatomi trail in Addison, in order to allow 50 broad-tired wagons to fight Black Hawk and his warriors.[7] In 1864, the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod moved its teacher training to the village from Fort Wayne, Indiana, and established the Addison Teachers Seminary; it remained in Addison until 1913, when it was relocated to River Forest, Illinois, as Concordia Teachers College (now Concordia University Chicago).[8] The town was also home to the Kinderheim home for children, which made up more than half its population prior to suburbanization.[9]

The town began to suburbanize in the 1960s when developers started to build homes on what was farmland. The population grew from just under a thousand in 1930 to 35,000 people in 1990.[10]

Adventureland amusement park was located in Addison (Lake and Medinah) during the 1960s and 1970s. The Addison Industrial District was the proposed location for the reconstruction of Comiskey Park in the late 1980s before this was voted down.[11]

The Village of Addison lies on Salt Creek, a tributary of the Des Plaines River.

According to the 2021 census gazetteer files, Addison has a total area of 10.00 square miles (25.90 km2), of which 9.83 square miles (25.46 km2) (or 98.29%) is land and 0.17 square miles (0.44 km2) (or 1.71%) is water.[12]
