About Bussey
Bussey is a quiet small town in southeastern Marion County, surrounded by rolling farmland and open Iowa skies. Founded in the late 1800s as a stop along the railroad for lumber and grain, the community has held onto its easygoing rural character through the years. Life here is low-key and neighborly, with calm streets and a true small-town atmosphere.
Local families are served by the Twin Cedars Community School District, which brings the community together for sports and school activities. Residents get to enjoy quiet country living while staying within an easy drive of nearby hubs like Knoxville, Pella, and Oskaloosa for work, shopping, and healthcare. It is a great option for anyone looking for an affordable, relaxed place to put down roots.
