For me it's being able to see the sky without ever having to look up. Unless you're in a corn field!
I once was in the London, Kentucky region, and the only time I could see the sky was by looking straight up. I felt so boxed in, I hated being there.
So what do you like best about living in Iowa?

All the back blacktop roads winding all along the many rivers in the state. It's a good balance of crop land and wooded areas. You can still easily find the quiet beauty of alone space in nature. The beautiful rolling green hills. I was at a station and a trucker pulled up and he was going on about this being "God's Country", he's seen a lot and was very much in awe over the rolling green beauty of our fertil hills. It lifted me because I take it all for granted most of the time. Iowa

I have to say I like the people. We seem to be a melting pot on our own here. I`ve met many people from other states who have settled here because of employment. It`s interesting finding out about their past and present lives.
Also love the seasons. I don`t mind staying home because of a blizzard or basking in the hear of a warm humid Iowan summer. Spring and Fall are breath taking.

Have so many people that come to NE Iowa from everywhere & they all tell me it's God's country here...definitely have to agree! Must admit the blizzard conditions last night weren't the best, but it's Iowa & wait a couple days and the sun will be shining again.

I would have to say the people. They are very
friendly. Seems to be no matter what town you
pass through the people here are very friendly.
Other then that, not much as I would prefer to
live in Texas. This
weather is gettin' hard on the bones and I love
the ocean.My family on my father's side
live in the Rio Grande (McAllen, Texas) to be exact.
72 miles from Padre Island. I could sit and stare at
the ocean for days on end...........God's country

Being in Gods country. Where you have the 4 seasons. The way God made it. He made this earth to have spring, summer, fall, and winter and the best thing about Iowa is it is the heart of the USA.

Better morals, cleaner air, beautiful rolling landscapes/bluffs, simple minded and logical citizens not all wound up, mushroom hunting is 2nd to Missouri, better education for the children, lower living costs than the rest of the US.
What I do not like is the Govenor, he is a crook and a ego tripper, know him personally. And the bums hanging out Downtown begging for some money for their fixes.

I like living the slower life. I've lived in the big cities and I always come back. It just seems right.

I hate the IOWA winters, but I do enjoy living in IOWA there are things to do if you look around and get involved. I would love to live by the ocean or even in Texas not California. Iowa is not a bad place to live less crime, and you have space too! The people in IOWA are also quite friendly.

I love how the seasons change. I enjoy all of the seasons but i really like the winter. There is nothing like a field covered in snow, while your tracking blood from the deer you just shot!! Iowa has great hunting!!
