Choose DuPage Economic Indicators Report The Choose DuPage Indicators Report is published on a quarterly basis. It is intended to provide a snapshot of the current state of the local DuPage County economy. While there is an abundance of economic data produced by state and federal sources, not all of it is produced for local level examination and disseminated on a regular schedule.
