Irish-American heritage is strong, with parish events, St. Patrick's season gatherings and communion parties a regular part of the calendar, alongside a growing mix of newer communities. Backyard graduation parties here are often held under rented tents, with relatives driving in from Orland Park, Evergreen Park and the city.
