DuPage County includes portions of 38 municipalities, 20 of which lie entirely within county limits. DuPage has Illinois’ second largest county population -- behind Chicago’s home of Cook County, which borders DuPage to the north and east. Together, the two counties account for over half of the state’s population. One of the nation’s wealthiest counties, DuPage is rich in many types of commerce and is second only to Cook in tourism revenue.

The DuPage Convention & Visitors Bureau is proud and appreciative of our close partnerships with the municipalities spotlighted here.
