Keeping a keen sense of community and historical character has also been top of the mind for this charming village, creating the ideal balance of small- town coziness intersecting seamlessly with urban growth. Situated in Northern Illinois and Nestled in the heart of DuPage County within easy commuting distance of Chicago, Villa Park has laid the groundwork for its vision of a town that is both a vibrant and a sustainable urban haven, as well as a place where residents, visitors, and businesses can feel not just connected, but able to benefit from continued prosperity and a dynamic future. EMBRACING COMMUNITY ROOTS AND DEVELOPMENT Villa Park was initially established as a subdivision constructed in 1908 by a real estate firm.
