Naperville has grown from a small settlement of 180 residents in 1831 to 142,000 residents in 2009. While this growth is impressive, what's more impressive is the way Naperville has maintained superior quality of life and a caring volunteer spirit among its residential and business communities. Naperville is the oldest city in DuPage County, 5th largest city in Illinois, and its residents are proud of their heritage. Early business leaders believed in their community and that same spirit is evident today in Naperville's thriving downtown shops, restaurants and booming entertainment district with their world-class fine arts center.

So whether you're shopping for a special gift or just want to pamper yourself at a day spa, enjoy lunch with friends or take in a concert performance, Naperville truly is like no other! We welcome you.
