I grew up in south florida, and tbh despite I have wanted to dream of getting out of the state and moving to Iowa or somewhere else that's quiet and less city-ish, money is not in my cards right now. but If I do, boy I got to get use to the massive cold. I would like to visit it first.

Iowa. Amazing album.

I'm planning to move to Davenport and your videos have helped me so much!

How sweet but please stay away from Yoga.

Have you ever lived. In Missouri valley. Been farming over 29 years. Johnny cann

The Illinois side has some awesome appeal too! Moline HS is pretty solid, and the downtown in Moline is lovely. They're about to have some major riverfront renovations, and their arts scene is also so cool. From Vibrant Arena to QC Music Guild to Spotlight to Blackbox to Sound Conservatory.

Gracias Bro

Crime and homelessness is a problem

Any condos downtown with views of the river?

Ive never thought about going to iowa! Bc I live in iowa-

Bruh I’ve lived in IA my whole life

How about letting people know about high property taxes and corrupt city governments

Just know that if you move here during a milder winter like the one we are having, know that they get a LOT worse. He's right about the isolation, especially during winter because it gets dark early in the evening. Also know too if you move here from out of state into a small rural town, don't be shocked if we don't roll out the welcome mat to you. Best thing to do is move to a larger town, blend in for a while, become "more Iowan"......then dip your toe in the rural town stream. You people from California- you know who you are, best just stay right where you are at. Summer weather sucks here too- we get a LOT of humidity, especially in rural areas because of all the corn growing going on- it's like living amongst a 8' tall rain forest for miles and miles and miles. It also triggers some pretty extreme thunderstorms, we've gotten more big tornadoes the last 10-15 years than I remember growing up- so have a basement, and if it is looking dark off to the west, you smell rain/ozone and the sky looks green/purple, or greyish blue/purple- gather up your animals and batten down the hatches, especially if you feel a drop in pressure outside. Some of us Iowans are more sensitive to severe weather than others, it's a survival skill, haha.

Insight: when the QC was "created" it was on the tag line, communities joined by a river. As a lifelong resident of 62 years, I define the area more as the conglomeration of communities on the Mississippi. I understand that the outliers love to be enveloped in the QC community! I now live in Port Byron, IL and often say that I live in small town just north of the QC.

Winter here is downright mild compared to what it was in the 70's and 80's. Heck even the later 90's was getting milder. Summer sucks. We're lucky if we have a spring or fall anymore.

Born in '68 in a small town in southeast Iowa. I've lived in Sioux City, Des Moines and now live in Dubuque. Winters used to be a lot worse than they are now.

I wanna move there to open a restaurant u think it’s a good idea ?:)

Seems lovely. Please don’t move to California. We are full

Nice video thank you 🙏

Hello, thank you for the video. How is the Dows/ Clarion area? Are there many jobs around that area?

It’s good in iowa

Hi bro IS it diverse Iowa state ?🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Life is what you make it no matter where you lay your hat.

Very closed minded residents . Most are racist and if you’re not White , don’t move here. Drugs are rampant in the old town district.

One word Whiteys

Heavy duty shocks is strongly recommended.

Winter #2 out here in the Quads. Let’s goooo!

Iowa no longer taxes ss or retirement income. And you can find a home under 200k.

Hi alex, may i request for you to have a blog about existing churches there in davenport? Like christian churches. thank you.

LET THE BEARD GROW

Grew up in Bettendorf. Knew of Crow Creek Park, before it was a park, and your standing by an old quarry, not a pond. Use to be a cave in Devils Glenn park until citify fathers decided it was unsafe and had it filled in. Don't know if I would move back there as it's become to urbanized and crowded for my taste. Before putting out videos' like this, you should check into some of the history of the city,

Property tax is kind of high. Otherwise, I would consider moving there to retire.

My reget of living in iowa is dealing winter weather. I lived in iowa my whole life winter is my suckiest time i wish i could go to a warmer state during winter but otherwise i couldnt live anywhere else

Folks think davenport is mostly slum. It's not, it has plenty of nice neighborhoods. Most think bettendorf is the cleanest city. It can be until you go over near bettendorf projects down on Hawthorne drive right behind old Chicago.

taxes are bs i pay over 4k a year property taxes for a old fixer upper and yeah gas is high hell everything is high.. illinois sucks don't do it

Please talk about hospitals, schools and other options for accommodations., We nurses, are searching for these information in every state in the US.

I Love Illinois, especially the western, central and southern parts. Too bad everything west of I-39 and south of I-80 doesn't form a new state. New Illinois might be worthy. It's not fair to the rural and small town residents that 60 cents of every tax dollar goes to Crook County.

Informative video, Don't forget the historic Moline, post office. Its a wonderful often overlooked treasure.

Neither lol. But seriously, I'm in east moline. Silvis next door is surprisingly growing, albeit slightly. The reliance on the ag industry has me a bit worried, even if deere stays, the decline in the ag economy can be felt with layoffs. It's a long shot, but I'm hoping more tech industry can move in slowly without disrupting the housing market.

Davenport is no different than any other large city, there are good sections and bad sections.

Hello, I'm following many videos from your channel to learn a little more about quadcities, I'm Brazilian and I work at john deere, in April I'm going to spend a month in the QC region, your videos have helped me a lot to know a little more about the region! 🇧🇷

They hung someone long long ago up in that bell tower I think it's city hall. I heard it's haunted. Much like the Blackhawk hotel who guests have sworn seeing Carey Grant walking in the hallways.

All the action is on the Iowa side. It's always been that way.

Depends on what you count as the quad cities. Quad means 4 to most of us but to others I might be 9 or more. You might say it's like the big ten in college sports. Now there are like 18 teams.

This Alex dude really doesn't know much about the area. For one he's not native to this part of the state

When is Alex leaving is the question.

All depends on what you can afford. Rock island you can find cheap places since the taxes there are astronomically high on that side of the river and landlords just want any Tennant in there to aid with the property taxes. Why you can find 2 bedroom homes over there for under 1000. The landlords there are thirsty asf

Slobs vs Snobs. 😂

Also crime is something you should talk about so basically all the emergency services and maybe compare all the Quad City School Districts
