The WEST630 Magazine editorial team

About

We Believe the Best Stories Are Right Here.

WEST630 was founded on a simple conviction: that the people, places, and passions of Chicago's western suburbs deserve the same world-class storytelling as any great city.

Chicago's western suburbs — home of WEST630 Magazine

Our Story

Born in the Suburbs. Built for Them.

WEST630 Magazine proudly launches in 2027 — from the publishers of Hinsdale Magazine Group, a locally owned media company serving Chicago's western suburbs since 2011.

Hinsdale Magazine Group has spent more than a decade connecting communities across Hinsdale, Oak Brook, Downers Grove, and Elmhurst through trusted, beautifully produced print publications. WEST630 is the next chapter: a premium regional magazine that brings that same editorial commitment to the entire 630 area code.

The 630 area code has long been the quiet identifier of DuPage County and Southwest Cook County. We made it our name because we believe in this place — its ambition, its generosity, its beauty, and its people. We are independent, locally owned, and deeply proud of it.
