The home of Deere and Company's international headquarters, Moline is one of the “Quad Cities” – an area comprised of four cities and their surrounding communities of Illinois and Iowa where the Mississippi runs west.

The riverfront and downtown areas have seen a recent surge in development. Gift shops, museums, and businesses border the river. You may casually or elegantly dine along the many restaurants up and down the Mississippi. The MARK of the Quad Cities in Moline is an arena that accommodates ice hockey and arena football in the winter, and the circus, the Ice Capades and world class entertainers throughout the year.

Bike paths and jogging trails along the banks of the Mississippi on Moline's northern border are a center of activity for walkers, joggers, bicyclists, and families and individuals out for a stroll along the river. The Rock River on Moline's south border offers water recreation opportunities. The bridges across the Rock take travelers to the Quad City International Airport, offering non-stop flights to 8 U.S. hub cities.

Moline's school district has 13 Elementary, 2 Middle, and 1 High School serving over 7,500 students. The district is constantly evolving as it tries to meet the educational needs of its diverse population. Higher educational opportunities are found at Black Hawk College and the Quad City Campus of Western Illinois University.

Moline offers exceptional schools, parks and a vibrant downtown, making it a great city for families! Housing that includes elegant older homes, luxury condominiums and new construction makes Moline a destination for young professionals, families and active seniors. Affordable housing welcomes first-time buyers. Prices can range from $70,000 - $700,000 with most homes within a $100,000 - $350,000 range.

Moline offers the charm of a smaller community with the excitement and features of a big city.
