About Lowden
Lowden got its start in the 1850s as a railroad stop in eastern Iowa's Cedar County, named by an early settler after his hometown in Ohio. Today, the community sits along Highway 30 between Cedar Rapids and the Quad Cities. It offers a relaxed, rural pace with open farmland around every corner and an easy drive to bigger cities whenever you need them.
Daily life here centers on family and community. Lowden Elementary gives younger kids a school close to home as part of the North Cedar Community School District, while Lowden Memorial Park is popular for weekend ball games, disc golf, and quiet evening walks. It is a welcoming, down-to-earth town where neighbors look out for one another and life moves at a comfortable speed.
