Cool, Small Towns!

Grinnell, Iowa; A Cool Small Town

Budget Travel Magazine recently held a poll to determine America's "Coolest Small Town". And as we all expected, Grinnell finished near the top of the list. Finishing third in the country is no minor feat for this small town that fits well into the qualifications of a "Cool Small Town",

"It's got to be on the upswing, a place that's beginning to draw attention—and new residents—because of the quality of life, arts and restaurant scene, or proximity to nature. And cool doesn't mean quaint. We want towns with an edge, so think avant-garde galleries, not country stores."
