    Clinton History

    The first permanent European-American settler arrived in the Clinton area in 1835. It was originally platted as the town of New York in 1836, but was renamed in 1857 in honor of the sixth governor of New York, DeWitt Clinton.

    In 1855, the land was purchased by the Iowa Land Company in anticipation of construction on the Chicago, Nebraska, and Iowa Railroad line traveling across the Mississippi River. The railroad was completed in 1859 reaching all the way to Cedar Rapids.

    Clinton became a lumber industry center between 1850 and 1900, using rafts of logs floated down from Wisconsin and Minnesota. Thereafter, the manufacturing industry came to town, attracted by the transportation afforded by the river and the railroad.

    Community

    The Clinton area offers affordable housing in towns next to the beautiful Mississippi River. Built on a truly supportive community atmosphere, the cities have been focused on people first since they were founded. If you’re looking for towns that feel like home, look no further!
