Favorite Things about Muscatine:
• The magnificent Mississippi River
• Industry/business-based community with leadership to support growth and “thinking outside of the box”
• Community large enough to have excellent schools, churches, community college, art center, quality social service programs, and more
• The community is small enough it takes two hours to buy groceries because we know everyone.
