Default The Nicest Place to Live
Hi,

I wanted to know what was considered the "Best" (high class) street or neighborhood to live, in Iowa City/Coralville/N. Liberty? Or is there even a place like this?

Thanks

In 1943 I entered the Air Force and had 3 months of training at Iowa Weslyan College. Does it still exist? I remember how friendly all the people in Mount Pleasant were, and on our way to the Lions Clubs International Convention in Minneapolis we are considering going out of our way to come for a few hours (and night) just to see what it looks like today. I got no response when I put Iowa Weslyan College in your site. stanpalmer@suddenlink.net

Yes Iowa Weslyan College still exists.. I just came back home from visiting my parents 2 weeks ago. My Mom and I went over to Mount Pleasent.. it was so nice.. I felt like I had come home again. Mind you I have been gone from Iowa over 17 years but all of my family still resides in Iowa.

In IC Walnut Ridge off of Melrose is the premier place to live. If you enjoy older homes Manville Heights is the place to be in IC. NL near the res has nice places, IC near the res also has nice homes a lot of people assume incorrectly that the houses near the res off of Dubuque street are in Coralville but that's not the case. Off of Rohert Road in IC has nice homes but they are close together and it's more suburbia like than the other places I mentioned. Nice neighborhoods in the Ville are escaping me at the moment
