Independence’s 50644 centers on a historic downtown along the Wapsipinicon River, anchored by the five-story Wapsipinicon Mill museum and a riverfront trail that sets a laid-back, small-town pace. Expect four true seasons—snowy winters and warm, breezy summers—with weekends spent fishing or paddling the Wapsi, camping at Three Elms Park, cheering at Independence Motor Speedway, or catching events at the Buchanan County Fairgrounds and Heartland Acres Agribition Center. Daily needs are easy with Fareway and Walmart Supercenter nearby, plus downtown coffee spots, Bill’s Pizza & Smokehouse, family diners, and a few low-key taverns; Anytime Fitness and local gyms keep routines simple. The community skews friendly and family- and pet-welcoming, with quiet streets and easy U.S. 20 access to Waterloo and Cedar Rapids. According to Zillow Market Trends, recent median asking rent sits around the low $1,000s, with most listings over the past few months typically ranging about $800–$1,300 depending on size.
