The charming neighbor to the University of Iowa

College Town Suburban Quaint Great Location Affordable

An enclave surrounded by Iowa City, University Heights borders the University of Iowa, a major institution in the state. This city is the perfect place for students and faculty to call home due to its unbeatable proximity to campus and very affordable rental rates. Although the city is mainly residential, there are a few small businesses in town like Maggie’s Farm Wood-Fired Pizza, a contemporary outpost offering elevated classics baked in a wood-fired oven. This charming establishment is just one of the perks of living in this quaint suburb. University Heights is proximal to Finkbine Golf Course, Iowa City Municipal Airport, and Iowa City itself, where you’ll find abundant restaurants and retailers.
