The cities I am familiar with are New York and DC. Is CB a busy, hub-bub place like those cities or is it a more small town feel?
You're coming from two of the most busy metropolitan areas in the nation... unless you move to another top 5 to 10 metro... you're probably going to feel the pace slow considerably whereever you go. Moving to Council Bluffs... you're talking near 'snail pace'.

Even 'big' Omaha across the river... with 800,000 in it's metro population (incl. CB) is going to be a shock in terms of ease of commute/laid back lifestyle.

EastCB is on a distinguished road
Stargazer is right. The pace is definately slower here in the midwest. I lived in Omaha for 12 years and have now been in CB for 9. I noticed the difference right away. Not bad though. In 9 yeqars I have also noticed that CB is getting busier .I work in West Omaha but enjoy coming home to a slower pace.
