Itasca does have a central downtown area, it's just very small.

And it is not "the only place in town" -- retail businesses are mostly located further east along Irving Park Rd, though there are also some along Rohlwing and the corporate office parks to the north have an entirely different mix -- the town center is more diffuse, the "wedge" in front of the big steepled church close the Starbucks is not particularly close to the municipal buildings and things are bit stretched out for a town with relatively small population. I believe the golf course is over the tracks is municipally run. Unique.
