Why Iowa?
Iowa City and its surrounding communities offer outstanding quality of life, and often appear on “best places to live” lists for affordability, low crime rates, excellent schools, and commitment to health and wellness. The vibrant downtown hosts numerous musical and cultural festivals, and indoor and outdoor recreation opportunities abound.
