Clive: DM - I-35/80 @ MM 124.2 (Hickman Rd)
Clive straddles the Polk–Dallas county line in central Iowa, a position that has made it part of the expanding Des Moines metropolitan area. The city developed from a small railroad settlement into a residential and commercial community, formally incorporating in 1956. Walnut Creek runs through Clive before joining the Raccoon River, while the Clive Greenbelt Trail follows the creek through parks and neighbourhoods. Interstates 35 and 80 share a corridor here, reinforcing the connected, roadside character of this western suburb. Housing, offices, shops and recreation shape local life more than a traditional downtown, with Des Moines immediately to the east.

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.
