As one of three "Greenbelt Communities" built by the federal government during the 1930s, Greenhills is surrounded by parkland and trees. Nearly 4,000 residents inhabit 1,660 homes, with many families
including third and fourth generation descendants from original "pioneers." Several unique housing units are available in the village. The original government-built area is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Much of the local retail activity is centered in historic Greenhills Shopping Center. More than 1,100 people find employment in the village working for such diverse employers as Winton Woods City Schools, Mobilcomm Technologies and Alois Alzheimer Center. Greenhills has a strong recreation program operating a nine-hole par-three executive golf course and an outdoor pool, both open to the public. Youth sports are sponsored year-round by the Greenhills-Winton Sports Association. The Greenhills Volunteer Fire Department, American Legion Post 530, Greenhills Woman's Club, Kiwanis and several scouting, church, gardening, civic and senior clubs are among the many volunteer organizations serving Greenhills residents.
