About

Cedar Rapids is a city located in Linn County in the state of Iowa. In 2000, it was the second largest city in Iowa by population and is home to approximately 140,000 residents. The suburbs of Hiawatha and Marion blend in on the city's outskirts. While historically known as an industrial, working class city; Cedar Rapids has recently begun to grow and expand employment opportunities in the service sector, attracting new residents to the area. While out of the way of most major travel routes and destinations, a stop in Cedar Rapids may uncover a great taste of the Midwest. One thing is for sure, that the residents will be extremely freindly when you inform them you are visiting from out of town.
