Calhoun County, Iowa
Calhoun County sits right in the middle of Iowa. It’s about as landlocked as you can get compared to other counties. But U.S. Highway 20 runs through the county, keeping it well connected.
Rockwell City, the county seat, calls itself the “Golden Buckle on the Corn Belt”. The population is small, around 9,500. But the community is tight-knit.
Twin Lakes State Park is a local favorite with camping, fishing, and a peaceful retreat by the water. If you’re looking for classic Midwestern farmland and friendly folks, Calhoun County fits the bill.
