The Illinois Central Railroad began serving the area in the 1850s, which fostered population and economic growth during that era. In 1893, the Columbian Exposition opened in Chicago, and southern Cook County became an increasingly popular retreat for busy Chicagoans. By 1913, the area's lush woodlands and rolling terrain convinced a group of investors led by Charles Beach to establish a golf course catering to Chicago's wealthy elite. Beach and his friend James Gardner developed a magnificent 72-hole golf course and country club, chartered in 1915 as Olympia Fields Country Club. Amos Alonzo Stagg, the famed football coach of the University of Chicago, became the club's first president. The name "Olympia" was proposed by Stagg. The word "Fields" was added because it aptly described the young community's pastoral terrain. In the early 20th century, golf and the resort atmosphere in the area south of Chicago became so popular that some families lived in canvas-covered "cottages" during the summer months, while others built more permanent homes on the western side of the railroad tracks beginning as early as 1919. The clubhouse, built in 1924, is on the [[National Register of Historic Places]]. The golf course is considered one of the finest in the nation. It was home to the 1928 and 2003 [[U.S. Open (golf)|U.S. Open]], the 1925 and 1961 [[PGA Championship]], the 1997 [[U.S. Senior Open]], the 1927, 1933 and 1968 [[Western Open]], the 2015 U.S. Amateur Championship, the 2017 [[Women's PGA Championship]] and the 2020 [[BMW Championship (PGA Tour)|BMW Championship]]. The country club's founder, Charles Beach, organized the effort to incorporate the residential areas around the Country Club as a municipality, and in 1927, the Village of Olympia Fields was created with Beach as its first president. His home, built to reflect the design and character of the Country Club, still stands at the southwest corner of Kedzie Avenue and 203rd Street. Today, the grounds of the Country Club remain unincorporated, outside the jurisdiction of the Olympia Fields village government. Olympia Fields has received the Tree City USA award for many years of having demonstrated a commitment to caring for and managing the village's public trees.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.olympia-fields.com/government/committees-commissions/beautification.html |title=Beautification Committee |access-date=November 5, 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141106012727/http://www.olympia-fields.com/government/committees-commissions/beautification.html |archive-date=November 6, 2014 |url-status=dead }}</ref> ==Geography== Olympia Fields is located at {{coord|41|31|6|N|87|41|34|W|type:city}} (41.518290, -87.692744).<ref name="GR1">{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov/geographies/reference-files/time-series/geo/gazetteer-files.html|publisher=[[United States Census Bureau]]|access-date=April 23, 2011|date=February 12, 2011|title=US Gazetteer files: 2010, 2000, and 1990}}</ref> According to the 2021 census gazetteer files, Olympia Fields has a total area of {{convert|2.94|sqmi|km2|2}}, of which {{convert|2.94|sqmi|km2|2}} (or 99.86%) is land and {{convert|0.00|sqmi|km2|2}} (or 0.14%) is water.<ref name="gaz2021">{{Cite web |publisher=United States Census Bureau |title=Gazetteer Files |url=https://www.census.gov/geographies/reference-files/time-series/geo/gazetteer-files.html |access-date=June 29, 2022 |website=Census.gov}}</ref> ==Demographics== {{US Census population |1930= 143 |1940= 101 |1950= 160 |1960= 1503 |1970= 3478 |1980= 4146 |1990= 4248 |2000= 4732 |2010= 4988 |2020= 4718 |align-fn=center |footnote=U.S. Decennial Census<ref name="DecennialCensus">{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/decennial-census/decade.html|title=Decennial Census of Population and Housing by Decades|publisher=[[US Census Bureau]]|access-date=}}</ref><br /> 2010<ref name=2010CensusP2/> 2020<ref name=2020CensusP2/> }} As of the [[2020 United States census|2020 census]]<ref name=":0" /> there were 4,718 people, 1,960 households, and 1,157 families residing in the village.
