Auto Transport to & From Iowa (IA)

Iowa is an interesting state, one filled with lots of cool stuff to do and see. And, if you're looking for auto transport services to Iowa, it might be good to know a little bit about it before you actually spend the money to get there. So, here's some nifty and just plain interesting things about Iowa, should you decide on an auto transport company to transport your car:

On the east side, Iowa is bordered by the Mississippi, and on the west is the Missouri river (south of Sioux City) and the Big Sioux River (north of Sioux City). If you're serious about auto transport to Iowa, the state has some really cool natural lakes, like Spirit Lake and Okoboji Lake ...great spots for fun in the sun. Also, some great man-made lakes include Lake Odessa as well as Saylorville Lake.

Another great thing about Auto Transport to Iowa is the states' rolling, gentle plains. There are hills along the west, especially near the border, and some of these hills can be hundreds of feet thick. What's also interesting, should you want to transport your car to Iowa, is the Drifless Zone, which is basically a bunch of rugged hills covered with conifer trees...a bit unusual for Iowa, though. Also, the state stands roughly 1100 feet high, with the lowest point at 480 feet (that's Keokuk) and the highest is Hawkeye Point, which stands at 1670 ft. Given the fact that the state covers 56,000 square miles, this difference in elevation is nominal at best.

Another great thing about Iowa is that fact that the temperature throughout the summer stays around 90 degrees. This makes watersports and summer activities a lot of fun...just one more reason (to add to the list of many) to find an auto transport company. However, just to warn you, the temperatures in the winter generally are around 50 degrees...wait, that's not so bad. Light jacket weather, so to speak. This can drop to below 40 on occasion, and in the summer the temperature has been known to top 100 degrees.

Another great reason to go to Iowa is the fact that there really aren't a whole lot of people there. If you like a big, sprawling metropolis then you'd be better off in California, but for those of you looking to get away, Iowa is definitely the place. Almost 90% of the cities in Iowa have less than 3000 people...perfect if you're looking to get away.

And if you're worried about education for the kids, Iowa has you covered. In 2003, Iowa had the second highest SAT scores out of all 50 states, and also tied for second highest in ACT scores. Some of the nation's best-known standardized tests (the Iowa test of Basic Skills and the Iowa Test of Educational Development) come out of Iowa, and the ACT national office is in Iowa City. Pretty cool, huh?
