A quiet suburban town 25 miles due west of Chicago's Loop, Downers Grove has a lot of history and a lot of famous people who got out as soon as they could.

Denise Richards used to live on Middaugh Avenue on the north side of the tracks. Her family moved out to Hollywood so she could marry Charlie Sheen, um, I mean become an actress.

Tony & Cammi Granato, hockey players learned how to play in Downers Grove. Tony went on to be in the NHL and Cammi went on to win a GOLD medal in the Olympics.

Named after some totally unexciting pioneer named Pierce Downer.
