Heart of the Neighborhood
The Dunhurst Shopping Center offers plenty of shops for all locals and visitors to Wheeling. Whether you need to hit the currency exchange to prepare for an international trip, buy new paint for your remodeling project, stop for a bite at The Original Granny's, or get a few essentials at KD Market, the Dunhurst Shopping Center will have what you need.
What We Love Most
Wheeling residents don't need to drive the 15 miles or take an hour-long Metra ride to the O'Hare International Airport when they have their own. The Chicago Executive Airport is another option for business travelers instead of O'Hare International. More than 300 aircraft are based at the Chicago Executive Airport, many corporate-owned. The airport is also an airfreight port.
Best Way to Get Around
Wheeling is located about 25 miles northwest of downtown Chicago. The commute from Wheeling to Chicago is usually done by car via I-90, I-94, or I-294. For those who want to skip the drive, the Metra North Central Service also goes into downtown Chicago's Union Station.
