Our largest land owner is the Forest

Preserve District of DuPage County - when we say green

space, we're not kidding.

We may be one of the healthiest destinations in Illinois, but that doesn’t mean we shy away from the Chicago classics.

DuPage was the birthplace of Portillo’s.

We have been called home to a few legends. Among them Blues legend Muddy Waters.

Speaking of the blues, Blues Brothers’ John Belushi and comedic brother Jim Belushi are two more DuPage legends.

Their legacy endures at the Belushi Performance Center at their alma mater, College of DuPage.

DuPage boasts 4 communities on Livability.com’s 2018 Top Places to Live list.

We're not surprised. You won't be either after visiting.

We’re not quite Kentucky, but we hold our own on the equestrian front. Danada House was the home farm of 1965 Kentucky Derby winner Lucky Debonair, whose race time of 2:01.20 remains one of the fastest in Kentucky Derby history.

The City of Big Shoulders wasn’t able to handle its own heavy lifting, so to speak: after the devastating Chicago Fire of 1871, DuPage’s William L. Gregg was one of the brick manufacturers bringing the city back to its feet.

Miles apart yet forever connected: DuPage’s

Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve provided the limestone for the magnificent

Chicago Avenue Water Tower and Pumping Station. Both locations beautiful in their own rights and worth a visit.

Ever gifted – or collected – adorable Beanie Babies?

Creator Ty Warner is not only from DuPage, he also kept the company’s headquarters here at

Ty Warner Park.

Chicago native Ivan Albright remains one of the most provocative, yet distinguished, artists of the 20th Century and American art. Though now known for his art in its entirety, Hollywood’s “The Picture of Dorian Gray” is what brought him national publicity and prominence. It is said Albright’s most productive years took place in DuPage in his Warrenville studio, now home to the Warrenville Historical Society.
