Covington

Few communities in Iowa have a history as closely tied to the early settlement of Linn County as Covington. This small, unincorporated community lies near the Cedar River northwest of Cedar Rapids, where the river corridor meets the cultivated fields and scattered woodlands of eastern Iowa. Covington belongs to the rural fringe of a metropolitan area shaped by Cedar Rapids’ long industrial and cultural role, yet its setting remains quiet and agricultural. Its name endures as a local marker of the county’s nineteenth-century settlement pattern. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Covington, Linn County, and Iowa.
