Looking for that small-town feel but not too far from the amenities of larger
communities? If so, Tiffin might be just the place for
you. Here's my top 5 reasons to move to Tiffin, Iowa.
Hi, my name is Emily Farber. I'm a Realtor® with Lepic-Kroeger, Realtlors® in Iowa City. I help people buy
and sell real estate in the greater Iowa City area, so if you're thinking about
making a move to Tiffin, North Liberty, Coralville, Iowa City or any of the
surrounding towns here in Eastern Iowa, you should definitely download my free
relocation guide. I'll leave the link for that down below in the description
box. If you're watching this on your mobile device and you're thinking, "...where's the description box?" no
worries, just click the title of this video and that description box will pop
right up. Now for the top 5 reasons to move Tiffin, Iowa. Number one-- small town
feel metro area. Located just 8 miles west of Iowa City, Tiffin is a small
town poised on the brink of huge growth. It already is one of the fastest growing
communities in Iowa, in fact it saw its population increased by 72% from 2010 to
2017. However, now that there's access from I-380 off the Forevergreen
exchange as well as access from interstate 80, it's poised to be the
next big thing in growing communities in our area. Entire new neighborhoods are
constantly being developed in Tiffin and people will find a variety of housing
stock available there, from single-family homes, to zero lots, condos, and
multi-family housing, which means there's going to be a wide price range to meet
the needs of every buyer. The town itself is growing to meet the needs of
residents, in fact it's recently been announced that a new community center is in the planning stages. Super exciting!
Tiffin's growth in the last 10 years has attracted the attention of businesses,
also. There's a new Fairway Grocery store in town, much to the delight of Tiffin
residents, as well as a major commercial development project called Park Place,
which brings us to point number two. Park Place Development. It's a 400 acre plus
mixed-use development area in Tiffin that's going to offer entertainment,
restaurants, retail, big-box stores, and housing. Many of the stores associated
with Park Place have not officially been announced, But signage for Park Place is
starting to go up so it won't be long until it shakes out which businesses
have reached an agreement to join this development. Number three-- Tiffin is
ideally situated at the crosshairs of Interstate 80 and I-380. It used to be
the case that in order to get to Tiffin you would have to take the exit off of
I-80 or take the back roads, but now that the new Forevergreen exit
is open on I-380 there's easy access from that direction - which means
east-west access and north-south. Because of this Tiffin is the perfect home base
for households with people who have jobs taking them in different locations every
day. Number 4-- Tiffin is served by the Clear Creek Amana School District, which
is a much-loved smaller school district serving Tiffin, Oxford, the Amana Colonies,
parts of Coralville, and parts of North Liberty. The district serves about 2,800
students and it's estimating growth of about 200 students a year through 2025.
There are currently five elementary schools in the district with two of them
being located in Tiffin, one middle school and one high school which are
also both located in Tiffin. Five--Tiffin is nestled in the rolling hills of Eastern
Iowa and only three miles to the west is FW Kent Park, a popular county park with
a Conservation Center, 27 acre lake, which is great for fishing and swimming, over
nine miles of hiking trails, a large play structure ,which is great
kids, multiple picnic shelters, and 86 camping sites. Kent Park is known as a
premiere place to experience Iowa tall grass prairie. So, if you're looking for a
close-knit, small-town feel, but you want to be a short drive to the larger
communities of Iowa City, Coralville, and North Liberty for all of the amenities
that they offer, Tiffin is definitely some place you should consider and I
would be happy to help you. Remember to download my free relocation guide or
