North English, Iowa (21829013202)

The town was founded in the 1850s and originally called Nevada, though residents quickly renamed it after the nearby river once they realized another Iowa town already had that name. Today, North English retains that straightforward, down-to-earth rural charm. With affordable homes, calm residential streets, and a strong connection to the surrounding farming country, it is a comfortable spot for anyone seeking simple small-town living.
