Matteson (/ˈmætɪsən/)[3] is a village in Cook County, Illinois, United States. The population was 19,073 at the 2020 census. It is a suburb of Chicago.[4]

Matteson is located in Chicago's Southland area. The village is home to multiple warehouse facilities, a large commercial corridor, and housed the now-demolished Lincoln Mall. There are currently plans to redevelop the mall property into a mixed-use complex.[5] The village is served by two stations on the Metra Electric District's main line; Matteson station and 211th Street station.
