Itasca is an extremely good part of the Chicago-Naperville-Elgin metropolitan area for driving. Nearby highways, such as Interstate 290, are reasonably easy to access from any home in Itasca, and it is very convenient to find a place to park. On the other hand, traveling by public transit is challenging in this part of the Chicago-Naperville-Elgin metropolitan area. Nevertheless, there is the Itasca Station on the Milwaukee District / West Line. The village is connected by a few bus lines, and bus stops are not particularly far-removed from most homes. Walking is not very popular in Itasca, although running common errands is convenient.
