The city of Bettendorf has made Money magazine’s recent list of the top 100 small towns in the nation for families to live.
Bettendorf, Pop. 32,400, finished 80th on the list among towns with populations of 8,500 to 50,000. Among the city’s assets, the magazine listed the Isle Casino and Hotel, Family Museum and Splash Landing. Above all, the magazine noted that Bettendorf is one of the few cities in the nation to have a fiber optic network available to all of its businesses.
Congratulations, Bettendorf.
Bettendorf is truly a premier city to live in. I have lived here for 3 years now and love every bit of it. Way to go Bettendorf!!
Bettendorf is a beautiful city with a great library.
A few years ago I was barred from the library for getting a little too rowdy on line. The ban lasted for a few years then I called them up and they said they’d give me another chance. So, since then I’ve been real nice when I go on line there, although I don’t go there t0o often.
But Rock Island, on the other hand has banned me for life, simply because I was banned from the Bettendort library and the Davenport library, which has also reinstated me.
But that’s okay, I will never go to the Rock Island library again as long as that power mad old broad who currently runs it is in charge anyway.
“Power mad old broad?”
Ooops, I’m probably in the grease again.
