Review of Bettendorf I, Washington


Please advise on Quad Cities area
Star Rating - 6/15/2007
We are thinking of moving to the area (Iowa). I am an NC native, although we feel the need to move out due to huge influx of newcomers in this area from the northeast affecting quality of life, etc. I have always liked the Midwestern way of life, nice people, etc and wanted to know what it is like from someone who actually lives there. We have children and are looking for a family oriented place with affordable housing and nice folks! Any information would be appreciated.

I lived in the Quad City area for about 35 years and moved to Alabama in 97. If I ever am financially able, I will go back to the Quad Cities. The cost of living was so much better there although the people in the south will argue although I have receipts to prove otherwise. Medical care is more affordable in the Quad Cities. I had no problem making good lasting relationships in the Quad Cities and have been in the south 10 years and haven't made any friends. The people in the Quad Cities are just really nice. There are a lot of things to do for entertainment. Here in the south only the wealthy are able to attend most concerts and/or sporting events.
