LOCAL: The 10 Most Boring Places In Iowa
I'll be the first to admit that Iowa isn't the most exciting place to live, so I got a bit of a kick out of this. The website roadsnacks.net took a humorous approach to finding what they consider the most boring places to live in Iowa.
Again...most of this is NOT meant to be taken seriously!
Iowa’s universities are known for absolutely one thing: winning national championships in wrestling. When your claim to fame is dominance in the most boring sport on the planet, you’ve officially ascended to the top of the boring pyramid.
To figure out how boring a place is, we rely on a complex algorithm that factors in things we generally think make people exciting, and then we figure out which cities have the least number of those exciting people. Here are some of the things people tend to think of as making a city’s population boring:
- Population density (Lower is more boring)
- Lots of Old People
- Lots of REALLY Old People
- Lots of Married People
- Lots of People With Young Children
- Atlantic
- Clear Lake
- Spencer
- Johnston
- Washington
- Webster City
- Clinton
- Bettendorf
- Charles City
- Newton
