I grew up there-from 1st grade thru 10th grade and have all positive memories: Girl Scouts, Town Square, cow pastures, bike-riding, Little League, Dairy Queen...it's Small Town America with the best of the best (and a few of the bad)... Can't go wrong--I'm raising kids in southern california now and totally miss Sigourney....... |

I live close to there, have had friends there. I do not mean to sound critical to disabled people, but there are many, many diabled people there for a town less than 2,000 people! They have a large office for just this purpose (and I have heard, though I can't verify) that many people that are independent living but are not mentally stable enough to handle things are their own are suggested to move there to be closer to the facilities.
It's a tiny town with 3 gas stations, a liquor store and a very high priced tiny grocery store. The nearests towns of any size are 25-30 miles away and those towns are only in the 10,000 people range. It's really in the middle of nowhere, 80 miles from des moines, 50 from Iowa City, 40 from Ottumwa. If you weren't originally from thsi area I wouldn't understand why you would want to move there.

Keokuk is in Lee County, not Keokuk County.
