About this map

Naperville, Bolingbrook, and Romeoville dominate this 2018 landscape, illustrating the modern suburban density of the southwest Chicago metropolitan area. The Des Plaines River serves as a primary geographic anchor, paralleled by the Illinois and Michigan Canal National Heritage Corridor, which preserves the vital 19th-century transport link that once connected the Great Lakes to the Mississippi River system.

Genealogical interest is found in several established burial grounds, including Resurrection Cem and the Saint Matthew Evangelical Lutheran Cem near Lemont. The map captures the meeting of DuPage, Will, and Cook counties, marked by significant infrastructure like the intersection of I-55 and I-355. Local landmarks such as Whalon Lake, Brookridge Air Park, and the historic clusters at Barbers Corners and Welco Corners provide touchstones for the area's development from rural crossroads to residential hubs.
