it's the home of Dave Stanley. You may have heard of him. Muscatine has some huge worldwide industries in town. But the city is not the kind of place I would want to live and this just adds to the bad image.

When I was born so many years back, Muscatine and Iowa City were about the same size. Muscatine was becoming an indutrial center, Iowa City the education hub. You can see how that has turned out.
