| The maps
below of the Chicago metro area and
suburbs
are provided
for the convenience of executives and business advisors who may be unfamiliar with this
region
for business location selection. Additional maps may be found on the
websites of county and local area economic development organizations, such as custom maps to illustrate data
about key topics. Some community websites may make
GIS mapping tools
available to map data about their area. |

|
There are also links below these maps for
Google Local maps and satellite images which can be dragged or zoomed to
see any level of detail in the communities down to specific sites. |
We welcome suggestions for improvement.

We provide personal introductory referrals to

service according to the capital investment project interests of the
corporate executives and business advisors we serve.
We are independent
advisors doing global work in the northwest Chicago suburbs - not a
government or non-profit economic development organization or investment promotion
agency. |
We are
developing a new directory of professional service providers relevant to
this market in Illinois,
including site selection consultants, corporate real estate services,
commercial real estate property developers, architects, engineers,
construction firms, tax advisors, bankers, lawyers, and other specialists
who are known to support Illinois business investment projects. This
may include executive summary presentations of their capabilities for search
purposes - Service Profiles -
similar to our Area Survey and
Area Profile. |
