Dupage County, Illinois

DuPage County is a county in the US state of Illinois and one of the largest counties in the Chicago metropolitan area. As of the 2010 census, the population was 916,924, making it the second most populous county in Illinois. The county seat is Wheaton.

Known for its extensive Tallgrass grasslands, DuPage County has largely developed and become suburban, although there are still some tracts of farmland in the western and northern parts of the county. Located on the Rust Belt, the area is one of the few in the region whose economy quickly became dependent on the headquarters of several major companies due to its proximity to Chicago. When the mills closed in the 1970s and 1980s, several acres that were formally industrialized areas were turned into business parks to meet the growing tax base. The county has a mixed socioeconomic profile, and residents of Hinsdale, Naperville, and Oak Brook are among the wealthiest people in the Midwest. However, in other cities, such as Aurora, Downers Grove, and Darien, the loss of manufacturing jobs over the past 30 years has led to above-average crime rates compared to border counties. Overall, the province has an average household income above the average and a low overall poverty rate compared to the national average. In 2018, Niche placed two DuPage counties (Clarendon Hills # 3 and Naperville # 16) in the top 20 places to live in America.
