I Was born and raised in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. I moved away from Cedar Rapids about 16 yrs ago for work. Milwaukee is great, but,i'll always be a Cedar Rapidian.
I agree with him 100%. My parents are from Des Moines and I was born there, but we live in the washington dc area. Whenever I go back to Iowa, people acctually take time to help out other people and they look at the positive side of life. Ive lived in DC for over 10 years and I hate it, people are too rude and obxious here. Can't wait 2 move back to Iowa XD
Exactly ... I think us Iowans will always share the same ethic. I remember 5a mornings ... grandparents saying ... the chicks and ducks won't feed themselves. And later on ... going to the corn and soybean fields.
An ex-Iowan living in California, agrees with what he said in the video. I've worked with folks all around the country, and when I meet another ex-Iowan, I see that ethic.
Thanks to who ever posted this amazing video! I'm from Des Moines currently in Los Angeles Area visiting family and Ashton did a really good job describing Iowans. I'll tell you know everyone should know just how lucky to live in a state that puts community, education, and family First, because yes out there in the bigger world there is many challenges but we should to focus on possibity and HOPE for an even better future. I'm very happy to be apart of that. THANK U

Cedar Rapids sucks. I grew up there and hated it. Nothing about it is nice. The city smells.
