About Rake

Rake is a quiet, close-knit farming community tucked along northern Iowa's border in Winnebago County. With fewer than 200 residents, it offers a slow-paced, peaceful lifestyle surrounded by open countryside. Local students attend the North Iowa Community School District in neighboring Buffalo Center, which also serves as the area's main hub for sports and community events. It is a classic small town for anyone seeking wide-open space and simple rural living.
