The City of Clinton, IA is located approximately

120 miles directly west of the Chicago metro

area. Named for Dewitt Clinton, former New York State governor, the City of Clinton, IA was founded in 1855. From a one street river town developed a city that now boasts almost 30,000 people and a thriving business community. Recent renovations to the downtown area along with the presence of several Fortune 500 businesses, make Clinton home to a diverse workforce and a community built on hard work, family, and stability.

The town's beautiful landscapes, rich history, and cultural opportunities continue to attract new residents and businesses alike. These assets have earned Clinton, funding from the Governor's Vision Iowa program, and most recently, a designation as one of Iowa's "Great Places."
