As the western anchor of the booming I-88 corridor, DeKalb, Illinois, is only a short 30 minutes drive to the high growth cities of Aurora and Naperville, and only a little more than an hour away from both downtown Chicago and O'Hare International Airport. Yet, in spite of its proximity to the Chicago region, DeKalb maintains its own unique character as a rapidly growing university community with both urban and rural roots. Many of its older neighborhoods have brick paved streets and well-kept historic homes, while the edge of the city bustles with new residential and commercial development.

The people of DeKalb enjoy the benefits that come with the proximity to an international city like Chicago and from a major state university including: museums, theatre, music, sports, speakers, libraries, recreational facilities and more. DeKalb also benefits from a rock solid economy that has resisted the kinds of economic ups and downs experienced by most other communities.

DeKalb residents have many reasons to be proud of their city. It boasts of a nationally acclaimed park district, a wide variety of golf courses, a growing art and music scene, a wealth of gardens, and a vibrant business community. In addition, the city has a thriving arts culture, which includes a host of art galleries and theaters that offer something for everyone's taste.
