Monee is a somewhat small village located in the state of Illinois. With a population of 5,097 people and two associated neighborhoods, Monee is the 332nd largest community in Illinois. Much of the housing stock in Monee was built relatively recently. The construction of new real estate can often be taken as an indication that the local Monee economy is robust, and that jobs or other amenities are attracting an influx of new residents. This seems to be the case in Monee, where the median household income is $89,571.00.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 8.90% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

One downside of living in Monee is that it can take a long time to commute to work. In Monee, the average commute to work is 31.14 minutes, which is quite a bit higher than the national average. On the other hand, local public transit is widely used in the village, so leaving the car at home and taking transit is often a viable alternative.
