You looking for more urban or rural?

I have a lot of good memories of Iowa and some fairly good memories of St. Louis, at least in the Webster Groves suburb. And I live in Nebraska now and my Internet is excellent in the area around O’Neill. Provider is NNTC.

If you need a cell phone connection, just make sure that you test the living place first. There are some places that are complete dead zones, but other places that have better cell reception than most of the places I’ve ever lived before.

Anyways, my two cents.

Also carefully check high speed internet availability. Less than 1/2 mile from me 30 mbps cable modem is available, but the cable company has stopped building out. Even the offer of $25k to extend the line that 1/2 mile did not work. I have my choice of satellite internet with usage restrictions and latency, DSL with actual speeds of 1.25 mbps, a 4G cellphone connection with usage restrictions, or microwave internet (WISP). The latter is all of 5 mbps down and maybe 2 mbps up. No good choices

I’m from Dodge county myself. Still miss it.

In occupied Iowa, but we are making some head way. The Quad Cities are still blue, but the county is leaning red.
