Most of Oak Brook consists of residential subdivisions, with the exception of the Oak Brook Center shopping mall, Oak Brook Shopping Center, and other retail and office properties along 22nd Street and the Interstate 88 corridor in the northern part of the village, as well as some commercial properties along Ogden Avenue on the southern boundary of the village.
