Monona is strategically located in the Central Time Zone, in Clayton County, in Northeast Iowa, approximately 13 miles west of McGregor and Marquette, IA's Marquette & Joliet Bridge over the Mississippi River that connects our great state with Prairie du Chien, WI.  U.S. Highway 18 - 52 runs parallel with Monona's southern boundary and its 15-acre commercial park. Centrally intersected by a great county highway system, Monona is easy to connect with other towns, states, and key points beyond. 

Monona is an ideal location for the opportunities to be either your own boss or to work for one of our growing area businesses. Monona has buildings readily-available for operating retail, office or service type businesses -- and we also have commercial building lots for new or relocating business developments. 

Monona provides an industrious workforce to its major industries and an ever-expanding retail and commercial business presence.  Our Bulldog pride is contagious and we have the best-around community school and teachers, plus many non-profit organizations and four churches to meet your spiritual & community needs.  Monona has always been a welcoming place to call home and raise a family, and for visitors and guests.


We've been branded as "Garden City of Iowa", c. 1931, which well describes our picturesque, well-manicured, colorful public and private spaces.  We've also been branded "Gateway to Yellow River", which is due north on Monona Main Street and one of the best-around kayaking, canoeing and trout fishing spots, and our streams contain all three fresh-water trout species (Brown, Brook and Rainbow trout) in northeast Iowa's "DRIFTLESS AREA".

Monona is a great place in which to live a happy, healthy, fulfilled life!  For a small town, Monona has essential products and services, churches and organizations, the arts and museums, and pristine recreational activities in "God's Country". Our five-town community school district employs top-notched school administrators and teachers, and with 900 children they can pay close attention to each one. Monona is where family life and community involvement are some things about which our locals feel fortunate to have, and it is a safe place in which to grow up and raise a family.  Please check out our homes for sale, job postings, and business directory to find just what you're looking for!
