Re: Great districts in Iowa? Moving out of Michigan...
Posted by Sammy on 5/21/07

    I don't feel like Des Moines or Iowa City has much to offer
    either...you can go out and drink. Wow, not my idea of fun all
    the time. I love living in D.C. There is always something to
    do. When I lived in Iowa, I was so bored. Yes, it is harder
    to get a job in Iowa compared to other places. If you are
    looking in a small town, you're nearly out of luck.
