About Oxford

Oxford offers a quiet, small-town setting in Johnson County with quick access to both Iowa City and Cedar Rapids. Sitting just off Interstate 80 and Highway 6, this community of roughly 800 people is a popular spot for commuters who want more space and a slower pace. Families appreciate having Clear Creek Elementary right in town, with middle and high school students making the short trip to nearby Tiffin as part of the growing Clear Creek Amana school district.

It is a practical, welcoming option for anyone looking for affordable small-town living within easy reach of the Corridor.
