About Java

Tucked into Walworth County, Java got its name back at the turn of the century when railroad crews made a regular habit of stopping here for coffee breaks. Today, it remains a peaceful prairie community with a relaxed, rural pace of life. Surrounded by wide-open farmland and within easy reach of outdoor recreation along the Missouri River, Java is a welcoming spot for anyone looking for quiet small-town living with plenty of elbow room.
