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.
