Why People Love Living in Coralville, Iowa

A Connected City with All the Essentials

This Iowa City suburb has continued to become a destination spot. It’s home to the thriving Iowa River Landing, a mixed-use development featuring the Xtream Arena, restaurants and hotels, shopping, luxury condos, medical services, a brewery, rooftop dining, and a large convention center.

As its population of nearly 25,000 continues to grow, new additions to Coralville have included a Center for the Performing Arts, an expanded and remodeled library, coffee shops, golf courses, community gardens, and a natural foods co-op.

Distinct Neighborhoods

From the high-energy, walk-to-everything lifestyle of the Iowa River Landing to established single-family neighborhoods like Oakdale and North Ridge, Coralville offers housing for every stage of life.

Effortless UIHC & Iowa City Commute

Getting to downtown Iowa City or the University of Iowa Hospitals & Clinics (UIHC) takes just 10–15 minutes. Commuters can easily drive via Highway 6/1st Avenue, hop on a direct Coralville Transit bus, or leverage the town’s 45+ miles of connected trails for a seamless bike commute.

Outdoors & Location

Coralville Lake is a popular destination for boating, fishing, hiking, and relaxing by the water. Coralville is also known for the Coralville Strip, which runs from one of the largest shopping centers in the state (Coral Ridge Mall) to downtown Iowa City, home of the University of Iowa.
