Chillicothe has served as a rural settlement in southeastern Iowa since the 19th century. The community lies in Wapello County, within the agricultural country shaped by the Des Moines River valley and its broad network of fields, wooded creek bottoms and small towns. Wapello County takes its name from Chief Wapello, a Meskwaki leader associated with the region’s early history. Chillicothe represents the quieter inland character of Iowa, away from the state’s larger urban centres.
