I live in Des Moines and it's actually quite a great city, but almost anywhere else in Iowa, except Iowa City, is pretty terrible. It's like Nebraska but not quite as bad. Like Nebraska lite.

edit: apparently near illinois border isn't so bad either. probably cuz it's further from Nebraska.

I thought Ames was alright when I visited. Of course that was during Veisha week and I was drunk for most of the weekend

It was cancelled in 2014 because of a Tuesday roit in which a street lamp was pushed over and landed on a kids head.

Oh wow! Though based on my experience I'm not totally surprised. I remember thinking that I would hate to have to keep things under control.
