Manchester is perfect - right in the middle of Dubuque, Cedar Rapids, and Waterloo (about 45 miles each way) and only 70 miles north of Iowa City. 5000 nice people, large parks, one with a first-rate new swimming pool, and Backbone State Park only 15 miles to the north.
Manchester has a quaint downtown that still has thriving businesses, even though there's been a WalMart on the outskirts of town for several years. It has a couple of golf courses and good schools, including a good Catholic elementary school. There are some beautiful homes there from all architectural eras. Nice place. |

I agree with Mason about Colo. I also like State Center as well. It's just a little further east of Colo and just a little bit bigger.

Hampton and Latimer are also good places. Very laid back and friendly and surrounded by family-owned farms.

Funny you'd say Latimer without sister city Coulter... across #3 and couple more miles.
