Nestled in the heart of the Midwest in eastern Iowa, Iowa City offers big city amenities, with small town hospitality.
Iowa City is focal point for education, culture and fun. We are home to the University of Iowa, and are a proud UNESCO City of Literature, the first to receive this designation in the United States. Numerous professional publications consistently rank Iowa City as a highly favorable place to do business, a center for arts and culture, and a perfect place to retire.
Whether enjoying one of our beautiful parks, a walk in our Downtown Pedestrian Mall or a bicycle ride on our miles of trails, we invite you to explore and enjoy all that our vibrant, diverse community has to offer. Maybe one day you’ll call it home.
