Make Greater Burlington a Great Place to Live

Greater Burlington’s thriving community welcomes new residents and visitors to share in our area’s beautiful landscape and equally impressive venues and events.

The community is situated on the beautiful bluffs of the Mississippi River providing not only a breath-taking stage for sightseeing, but also a myriad of recreational opportunities and outdoor activities. The Iowa rich “natural architecture” of hills, valleys, prairies, rivers, streams and timberland provide a serene backdrop for those who live and visit Greater Burlington.

Greater Burlington has something for everyone and every season. There’s the lighted holiday parade each winter and prospect league baseball at Community Field in the spring. Enjoy a summer evening at the Jefferson St Farmers Market, or a trip to A Very Vintage Market.

Whether looking to escape the congested commutes of a big city or find a cozy community to call home, Greater Burlington provides a welcoming atmosphere full of charming local businesses and exciting nightlife.
