Your Guide to Buying a Home in Burlington, IA

Buying a Home in Burlington, Iowa

Burlington is located in Des Moines County

From the continent's greatest river, the mighty Mississippi, this community extends westward into the fertile farmland that feeds the world. Situated in Southeast Iowa, it offers welcoming smiles, warm hearts and healthy neighborhoods. The Burlington Area offers a beautiful quality of life. Topographically diverse, with rolling hills, a broad stretch of prairie and the tall wooded bluffs overlooking the Mississippi River, we offer a variety of attractions.

Four distinct seasons provide the beauty of an ever changing, colorful landscape. Each season is filled with all sorts of leisure activities, from concerts to Broadway touring companies to the excitement of Big Ten football and basketball. Steamboat Days is rollicking summertime fun on our riverfront featuring national entertainers. And in winter, cross-country ski trails provide an invigorating and fun escape.

You'll find the area to be rich in history and architecture. The many Victorian homes and exciting restoration projects that are always in progress provide a charming link with our historic past. This community bustles today. It builds for tomorrow. But we also value those whispers of where we've been - a sense that although many of us hail from somewhere else, this place we've chosen has the advantage of roots. It feels like home.

Burlington and West Burlington are vigorous vital communities where it's easy to balance the demands of work and family.
