Blood, Trauma, and Biohazard Cleanup in Flossmoor, IL

Flossmoor is a village in Cook County, Illinois, about 24 miles south of the Chicago Loop, closely tied to neighboring Homewood, with which it shares a high school and a park district.

Although its roots reach back to the 19th century, Flossmoor was incorporated as a village in 1924, just as it was becoming known as an affluent retreat of elite country clubs and stately golf courses.

Flossmoor hosted the 1920 PGA Championship and the Western Open golf tournaments of 1906 and 1912, and the village still has three 18-hole golf courses.

Flossmoor had a population of 9,704 at the 2020 census, up slightly from 9,464 in 2010, when the village counted 3,447 households.

Flossmoor is renowned across Chicago's Southland for the quality and architectural variety of its housing stock and its tree-lined, park-like streets.

Most Flossmoor students attend Homewood-Flossmoor High School, a three-time winner of the U.S. Department of Education's National Blue Ribbon Award and an IB World School, whose campus opened in 1959.

Younger children attend Flossmoor School District 161's four elementary schools — Western Avenue, Serena Hills, Flossmoor Hills and Heather Hill — and then Parker Junior High School.

Flossmoor is one of the most highly educated communities in Illinois — during 2007–2011 an estimated two-thirds of its adults held at least a bachelor's degree and more than a third held a graduate or professional degree.

Flossmoor has a station on the Metra Electric District line, giving commuters a direct ride to the Chicago Loop and the University of Chicago.

The village offers nine parks, an indoor ice arena, an aquatics and fitness center, and access to Cook County Forest Preserve trails.
