DuPage County is a county located in the U.S. state of Illinois. Its county seat is the city of Wheaton. This county is part of the Chicago metropolitan area. A special census in 2005 indicated the population to be 930,000, making it the second most populous county in Illinois after Cook County, which borders it to the north and east; the two counties account for half of the state's population. The population in 2010 is expected to reach 960,000. The county is divided into nine different townships: Addison, Bloomingdale, Downers Grove, Lisle, Milton, Naperville, Wayne, Winfield and York. The majority of DuPage County is in the 630 and 331 area codes. However, the areas of the county that are in the City of Chicago are in area code 773, primarily part of O'Hare International Airport.
Long known as one of the nation's wealthiest counties, DuPage County has transformed itself from a primarily agricultural economy to one rich in many different types of commerce. Today, DuPage County boasts a personal per capita income which is the highest in the state. DuPage County's per capita income is also the highest in the midwest; nineteen of the county's towns have average household incomes of over $100,000.
The most populous municipality within DuPage County is Naperville. The next largest communities are Wheaton and Downers Grove. A small portion of the City of Chicago is located within the county limits; however, this area is primarily commercial and as of recent census estimates, has only 230 residents.
Geography

The DuPage River and the Salt Creek flow through DuPage County.

History
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ae/Warrenvillegrove.jpg/260px-Warrenvillegrove.jpg)
DuPage County was formed in 1839 out of Cook County. The county took its name from the DuPage River, which was, in turn, named after a French fur trapper, DuPage.[2] The first written history to address the name, the 1882 History of DuPage County, Illinois, by Rufus Blanchard, relates:[3]
The DuPage River had, from time immemorial, been a stream well known. It took its name from a French trader who settled on this stream below the fork previous to 1800. Hon. H. W. Blodgett, of Waukegan, informs the writer that J. B. Beaubien had often spoken to him of the old Frenchman, Du Page, whose station was on the bank of the river, down toward its mouth, and stated that the river took its name from him. The county name must have the same origin. Col Gurden S. Hubbard, who came into the country in 1818, informs the writer that the name DuPage, as applied to the river then, was universally known, but the trader for whom it was named lived there before his time. Mr. Beaubien says it is pronounced Du Pazhe (a having the sound of ah, and that the P should be a capital). This was in reply to Mr. Blodgett’s inquiry of him concerning the matter.

DuPage County government is most infamous for the prosecution and conviction of an innocent man. Rolando Cruz, a Hispanic man from Aurora, Illinois, was indicted and convicted of the murder of 10 year-old Jeanine Nicarico. Cruz spent ten years on death row, but all charges against Cruz were eventually dropped. The murder case was never solved. Seven policemen and State's Attornies ("The DuPage Seven") were charged with 47 counts of perjury and obstruction of justice and framing Cruz. The men were found not guilty. The public outcry over the case eventually resulted in Illinois Governor George Ryan instituting a moratorium on the death penalty in Illinois.
