Located in Jasper County
Located on I-80 in Central Iowa, Newton has an abundance of unique treasures, and is a community bustling with growth and has become what many economic leaders consider the hub of a region encompassing almost 100,000 people, which includes Grinnell to the east, Knoxville, Pella and Oskaloosa to the south, and Marshalltown to the north. Newton itself is a community of about 15,000 people, but that number is rapidly expanding and the city is in the midst of building new subdivisions in order to accommodate the influx of new people. The motto of the city is, "We saved a place for you" and the town leaders take that motto literally and are in the midst of ensuring that not only is there a spot, but that it's the best one! There are plenty of things to do here in the heart of America! Nearby Amboy Trail Ranch is the perfect place for an outing. Amboy offers trail rides, riding lessons, boarding services, hayrides, bonfires, and much more. With four distinct seasons, and the wide-open spaces for which Iowa is justly famous, there is always something to be done that's fun! Whether it is golf, or cheese tasting, or shopping in one of the new shopping malls that have been developed, Newton has it all. New homes are going up almost daily, and there are a variety of styles and price ranges. And if your taste goes more to the traditional or older homes, Newton has that too! Prices here range from $75,000 and move on up from there. For this area of Iowa, especially being so close to Des Moines these are exceptional prices. Education does not lack here either! The schools are known for maintaining a standard of excellence that is renowned in the area. The students have many resources at their disposal, not the least of which is the teachers themselves! Newton is a town on the move and on the go. Yet it is rural enough to have large, open spaces, but close enough to still make a drive to Des Moines a wonderful diversion for a romantic getaway. Newton has "saved a place for you", so why not take them up on that offer?
