Why Live in Burlington

Burlington, Iowa, founded in 1833, retains much of its 19th-century charm with historic Victorian homes and elaborate buildings in its hilly downtown. Snake Alley, known as the crookedest street in the world, is a notable landmark with its sharp turns and steep climb. The city’s economy has seen fluctuations, with manufacturing plants like CNH Industrial planning closures, but a recent revitalization has brought new businesses downtown. Housing options include historic Victorians, modern homes on the outskirts, and downtown condos. Burlington boasts over 200 acres of parks, including Mosquito Park with its bluff views and Riverside Park along the Mississippi River. FunCity Resort offers indoor and outdoor waterparks, an arcade, go-cart track, and bowling alley. Annual events such as Heritage Days and the Catfish Festival celebrate the city’s history and community spirit. The Burlington Community School District provides both in-person and virtual learning options. Downtown features historic storefronts, while West Burlington offers a commercial scene with big-box retailers. Transportation options include U.S. Highways 34 and 61, Burlington Urban Service buses, Greyhound, Amtrak, and Southeast Iowa Regional Airport. Flooding can be a concern due to upriver effects, but levees help protect parts of downtown.
