Charming Great Plains Fun-Filled Casino Education

Bordering two states and two rivers, North Sioux City’s not-too-big, not-too-small size is just perfect for the residents that live here. Approximately 15 minutes from Sioux City, Iowa, North Sioux City has a charming, small-town feel right outside a major metro. The easy way to travel inside or outside the city limits is by way of I-29, which passes directly through. Take I-29 down and you’ll find the Two Rivers Golf Club, Riverside Park, and War Eagle Park for a fun-filled day outdoors.

Situated in the northern half of the Great Plains, the landscape is very much flat – with the exception of a few rolling hills – and suitable for farmlands. There are many restaurants and casinos here, mostly corralled on Military Road. McCook Lake extends almost seven miles from the western border. K-12th grade students attend schools in the Dakota Valley School District, and the colleges nearby include St. Luke’s College – UnityPoint Health and Morningside College.
