Casey: I-80 @ MM 83.9
Casey has served as a railroad town in west-central Iowa since the late 19th century. Interstate 80 passes close to the community, placing it on one of the United States’ principal east–west highway corridors. Beyond the road, the setting is defined by rolling agricultural ground, fields, pasture and scattered tree cover rather than dense urban development. Casey’s compact center retains the scale of a small Iowa town, yet it has become known for a collection of oversized public artworks. The giant rocking chair is its best-known landmark, part of a roadside tradition that gives the town a distinct identity within the rural Midwest.

Tucked into the rolling farm country of west-central Iowa near the Middle Raccoon River, Casey is a place whose character is shaped by prairie and the agricultural land around it. Its compact downtown has gained an unlikely identity through oversized roadside sculptures: a giant rocking chair, an enormous ball of twine and other hand-built objects turn ordinary streets into a memorable stop on Iowa road trips. Rather than forming a separate museum district, these installations stand among everyday local businesses, giving Casey a distinctly local take on American roadside folk art. The town also lies close to Interstate 80, a principal east–west route across the state. Continue with other webcams from the area to see how this part of western Iowa connects regionally.

Iowa combines broad agricultural openness with wooded river corridors in a way that reflects its position within the American Midwest. The Mississippi River forms much of the eastern border, while the Missouri River marks the west; between them, rolling prairie, farmland, and smaller waterways shape the state’s largely rural character. Des Moines, the capital, is Iowa’s main urban centre and hosts the annual Iowa State Fair, an institution closely associated with the state’s farming traditions. The Loess Hills along the western edge add a distinct landform to this predominantly lowland state. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Iowa.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
