Troy Mills offers small-town breathing room along the Wapsipinicon River, with quick access to the jobs, arts, and dining of Cedar Rapids and the services of Linn County. Commuters appreciate the easy drive, while outdoor enthusiasts prize weekends on the water and on nearby trails.
The river is the community’s natural anchor, drawing paddlers and anglers to the Wapsipinicon River Water Trail. Minutes from town, Pinicon Ridge Park offers camping, river overlooks, trails, and wildlife viewing, while the expansive Matsell Bridge Natural Area provides miles of multiuse paths, equestrian routes, and quiet backwaters for kayaking. Community calendars fill quickly each summer with regional traditions like the Linn County Fair, a hallmark event showcasing 4-H exhibits, live music, and family activities.
Families are served by the North Linn Community School District, with the high school and middle school campus right in town—an advantage that makes after-school events, athletics, and concerts feel like true neighborhood gatherings. Everyday needs are covered nearby, and major healthcare is a short drive away at Mercy Cedar Rapids.
Whether you’re drawn by river recreation, tight-knit school spirit, or a quieter setting within reach of city amenities, Troy Mills makes settling in feel straightforward and rewarding.
