Bettendorf, the youngest of Illinois and Iowa’s “Quad Cities,” is known for its increasingly vibrant downtown area, its vintage housing, and its combination of rural and urban feels due to its varied geography. Southern Bettendorf’s Edgewood District expresses the full extent of this diversity within its compact boundaries. Homes built in the 1940s and 1950s line quiet residential streets just around the corner from downtown Bettendorf, while residents have easy access to a wealth of nature along the Duck Creek Trail and at nearby parks.

Postwar homes and prime real estate

The Edgewood District reflects Bettendorf’s own housing-market history; dozens of older bungalow and ranch-style homes sit beside newer construction, including 1990s-built Cape Cods. This variety can be explained by Bettendorf’s gradual transition from a blue-collar industrial town in the postwar years to a growing center of retail and restaurants in the recently revitalized Quad Cities region. The homes of postwar American Dreamers offer aspiring Edgewood homebuyers a relatively welcoming price range of $225,000-$340,000, while newer houses sell for between $400,000 and $675,000. While Edgewood features a diversity of lot sizes and home styles, residents can count on living along tree-shaded suburban streets complete with sidewalks and small front-lawn areas, creating a more neighborly feel for this community. Local Keller Williams Realtor and longtime Bettendorf resident Lauren Underwood says, “Homes here are nestled in quiet cul-de-sacs within walking distance from local parks and bike paths. You’re only minutes away from schools, restaurants, and shopping, so houses here go fast.”

Surrounded by parks

What sets Edgewood apart from other neighborhoods near Bettendorf’s downtown area is its immediate proximity to parks. In addition to local bike lanes, this neighborhood borders the playground and walking trails at Hollow View Park and the wooded paths of Veterans Memorial Park, while also containing a small green space at Wessel Park. Edgewood Park offers an extensive array of amenities offering fun outdoor adventures to local kids; in addition to a jungle gym and swing set, this green space also includes a baseball field and a basketball court for the athletically inclined, as well as grassy fields on which to play field sports or simply frolic under the sun.

To Downtown and Davenport

With downtown accessible within a short drive or walk, and the cultural hub of Davenport just 5 miles down the road, Edgewood residents have prime access to the major urban centers of the Quad Cities.

Taco Tuesdays and grocery conveniences

Edgewood may consist almost entirely of homes, but a small concentration of businesses along Central Avenue offers amenities from a local bar to a barbershop and a gas station. Central Avenue Tap has been a mainstay for Edgewood’s loyal clientele; between this bar’s “Taco Tuesday” events and its pool tables, Central Avenue Tap offers a relaxed atmosphere for locals to kick back at after work. The shopping and restaurant scene of downtown Bettendorf is just a mile southwest of Edgewood, offering a more comprehensive array of amenities from the local convention center and casino to brand-name restaurants and the locally famous K&K Hardware & Lumber Store. Grocery trips are made easy due to Edgewood’s proximity to the nearest Hy-Vee Grocery Store and Walgreens pharmacy, both of which sit just 2 miles to the north at the Glenroads Center shopping plaza.
