Why Live in Washburn

Washburn, located approximately 7 miles south of Waterloo and 8 miles north of La Porte City, is a neighborhood that offers a quieter lifestyle while still being within a 12 to 15-minute drive from essential amenities such as grocery stores, entertainment, and dining options. The area lacks sidewalks, bike lanes, and public transit routes, with La Porte Road (US 218) serving as the main transportation artery. Washburn does not have its own school district, so children typically attend Waterloo Community Schools, with Orange Elementary, Hoover Middle, and Waterloo West High School being the primary options, all within 8 miles north of the neighborhood. Local dining includes Mo's One More Lounge, known for its unique cheeseburgers, and the Moose Lodge, which hosts various social events and leagues. For shopping, residents can head 5 miles north to East San Marnan Drive in Waterloo, which features major retailers like Walmart, Sam’s Club, and Menards. Recreational opportunities are available within a 5-mile radius, including Cedar Terrace Park and the Lost Island Waterpark and Theme Park, which offer a variety of activities from water slides to mini-golf. Housing in Washburn primarily consists of minimal traditional and ranch-style homes built in the 1950s and 60s, with most homes ranging from 700 to 800 square feet on large lots averaging 13,000 square feet. The neighborhood lacks sidewalks, so driveways lead directly onto narrow roads. Established trees and well-kept gardens are common features. Washburn is safer than the national average, making it a practical choice for those seeking a quieter lifestyle close to urban conveniences.
