The village of La Grange is a suburb of Chicago and a village in Cook County. The population is approximated at 15,500. The area around La Grange was first settled in the 1830s. Robert Leitch was the village's first settler in 1830 and the village was officially incorporated on June 11, 1879. La Grange was founded by Franklin Dwight Cossitt.

The village has since developed into the community it is today.
