The Mount Vernon school district is the best school district available for your children. Also the living is not right in town, so it is very peaceful. The location is also only 10 minutes from Mount Vernon, and 10 minutes from Cedar Rapids. It is the perfect choice for new families!
This is by far my favorite thing. Everything wild life is within a short distance. The Nature Center backs up to our property, and is the perfect way to just get away and look at all of the beauty God has created. A little bit farther away we have the Fishery; this is where my friends and I love to take the boat out and go fishing. Even if you're not the type to go fishing a lot of people come to go running or go for a walk with their dog. It is two miles around that is enclosed by a body of water. Each year they stock the Fishery with Bass and Trout, which always seems to be the days when you're out there from sun rise to sunset. We also have Palisades National Park. This place is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! You can ride bikes, fish, canoe, and walk the trails. Besides these three places there are many other options we have the Squaw Creek for camping, the Wapsi for fishing and camping, and many others.
The pollution here can sometimes be quite disappointing. We do have many factories being Quaker Oats and General Mills. Within the past few years it seems that they have started to minimize their use and look for better ways to get rid of the pollution. Hopefully in years to come they can create a way to completely diminish the pollution in our community.

I feel Cedar Rapids has the best sense of "community." Most people that grow up here will continue to live here the rest of their lives. I know tons of people that my parents went to school with and now I'm going to school with their children. Everybody seems to know a ton of people and be very involved. We have such great people here that seem to be trying their best to provide a great community to live in. We have just built a new indoor city market, Newbo, that has been absolutely great for our community. People love to get together there, whether it is to ride on the great bike trails down by the Cedar River or if it's just to meet up with friends. Cedar Rapids is a great town, and if you haven't been here before you're missing out on a great time!
