About Olympia Fields

Located about 25 miles south of downtown Chicago, Olympia Fields is a quiet, leafy suburb known for its relaxed pace and spacious neighborhoods. The village originally developed around the prestigious Olympia Fields Country Club, founded in 1915, and the area still retains much of that golf-course charm. Residential streets wind through mature trees and handsome subdivisions, offering a peaceful setting with a small-town feel.

Commuting into the city is simple thanks to the local Metra Electric station, which offers a direct ride straight into downtown Chicago, along with easy highway access via Interstate 57. Families have access to local schools, including Arcadia Elementary and nearby Flossmoor options. Outdoors, Sargeant Means Park serves as a central hub for walking paths, sports, and community events, while everyday shopping and dining are always close by in neighboring Homewood and Flossmoor.
