City - Cedar Rapids

Stretched along the banks of the Cedar River, about 100 miles northeast of Des Moines, Cedar Rapids is the second largest city in Iowa and the largest corn-processing city in the world. Nicknamed the City of Five Seasons, Cedar Rapids residents take time to appreciate everyday beauty, resulting in an intangible fifth season dedicated to enjoying life.

Cedar Rapids has all the amenities of a larger city without the hassle. Renting in Cedar Rapids affords you the opportunity to visit a host of diverse museums such as the Cedar Rapids Museum of Art, the African American Museum of Iowa, and the National Czech and Slovak Museum and Library. You can also watch a play at Paramount Theater, walk the trails along the Cedar River, tour the historic Brucemore, take the kids to the petting zoo at Bever Park, see the Kernels play ball at the Veterans Memorial Stadium, attend the Maple Syrup Festival at Indian Creek Nature Center, and have a tasty meal at NewBo City Market.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Great for Downtown City Living!

I am coming up on my 2nd year here and very happy. Units were about brand new when I got my unit and has been very easy to maintain. Has everything you need including Laundry. Utilities aren't too high either. I have severe allergies and can't do carpet so this place has been a god-send for me!
