University Park, Illinois combines suburban living with educational opportunities, centered around Governors State University, which has called the village home since 1969.

The village spans approximately 10.7 square miles, incorporating residential neighborhoods alongside the Governors Gateway Industrial Park near Interstate 57. With one-bedroom apartments averaging $1,213 monthly, University Park presents a cost-effective alternative to Chicago's urban core.
