'''South Holland''' is a village and [[Chicago Southland|south suburb]] of [[Chicago]] in [[Cook County, Illinois]], United States, within [[Thornton Township, Cook County, Illinois|Thornton Township]]. The population was 21,465 at the 2020 census. It is named after the [[Netherlands|Dutch]] province of [[South Holland]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=South Holland village, Illinois profile |url=https://data.census.gov/cedsci/profile?g=1600000US1770850|website=[[United States Census Bureau]]|accessdate=January 26, 2022}}</ref>

==History==
{{More citations needed section|date=April 2012}} 
The area currently occupied by South Holland, Illinois, was first settled in 1846 by immigrants from [[South Holland]], [[Netherlands]]. When the community formally incorporated as a village in 1894, its population was about 1,000. Originally a general [[farming]] community, it later specialized in vegetable growing, especially [[onion set]]s. By the 1940s South Holland was known as the "Onion Set Capital of the World". The town was built on low ground near the [[Calumet River]] and was originally called ''de Laage Prairie'' (Low Prairie) to differentiate it from another Dutch settlement further north on higher ground and called ''de Hooge Prairie'' (now the [[Roseland, Chicago|Roseland]] neighborhood of [[Chicago]]).

In October 2007, [[Forbes.com]] declared South Holland to be the "Most Livable Metro-Area suburb" of the [[Chicago metropolitan area]].<ref>{{cite news| url=https://www.forbes.com/2007/10/11/property-homes-suburbs-forbeslife-cx_mw_1011realestate.html | work=Forbes | title=Most Livable Metro-Area Suburbs | date=October 11, 2007}}</ref>

In a book called ''The Shortest History of Migration'', the economist [[Ian Goldin]] explains the concept of [[chain migration]] or network migration by noting that 90% of Dutch migrants from South Holland to the United States settled in three American towns, one of which was South Holland, Illinois.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Goldin |first=Ian |title=The shortest history of migration |date=2024 |publisher=Old Street Publishing Ltd |isbn=978-1-913083-44-1 |location=Exeter |pages=122}}</ref>
