About Hinton

Hinton got its start in the late 1800s as a railroad stop, named by an early settler after his old hometown in West Virginia. Today, this Plymouth County community offers a classic small-town feel right along Highway 75. It is popular with people looking for quiet streets, friendly neighbors, and strong local schools, with the added perk of being just minutes from Sioux City for work or weekend outings. It gives newcomers an easy rural pace alongside everyday convenience.
