Darien is a city in DuPage County, Illinois, USA. The population was 22,860 at the 2000 census. A suburb of Chicago, Darien was named after a town in Connecticut. The City of Darien was originally part of these two communities — Lace and Cass. The idea to incorporate came from a desire of some of the residents of four subdivisions to unit into one city. Those subdivisions were Marion Hills, Brookhaven, Clairfield and Hinsbrook.

The City of Darien was incorporated in 1969. When the incorporation committee reached an impasse on an acceptable name for the new city, Acting mayor Sam Kelly suggested the name "Darien." Today, Darien is known as "A Nice Place to Live."
