Iowa city ranks among the nation's worst for rat infestations

Corn bears aren't real in Iowa , but rats certainly are. The pest control company Orkin has unveiled its list of the rattiest cities in America , and an Iowa city made the list for the first time. Aw, rats! Which Iowa city has the worst rat infestations? This is the first time Cedar Rapids has made it into the top 50 worst cities for rats, landing at 36th on the list. Rats love making homes in and around buildings, beneath vegetation and anywhere they can find protection from predators and the elements, the report said. Cities provide the prime resources for them to thrive. “There’s no single type of city or climate that’s immune to rodent pressure,” said Dr. Shannon Sked, National Technical Director at Orkin. Cedar Rapids also made Orkin's list for the cities with the worst bed bug infestations in July.

Documentary connects Indigenous tribes from Iowa, Hawaii and Mexico through dance

In 1883, the U.S. Department of the Interior created a Code of Indian Offenses — it made Native dancing and ceremonies illegal and gave Indian Agents authority to punish anyone who violated the code. This was part of a systematic effort to erase individual tribal cultures and to force all indigenous people to assimilate. The documentary Why We Dance takes viewers into the heart of Indigenous communities around North America in Iowa, South Dakota, Minnesota, Hawaii and Mexico. It's a film about heritage, connection, joy and cultural resilience.

When SingleSpeed Brewing Co. opened its taproom in a former Wonder Bread bakery in Waterloo, Iowa, some of the first visitors already knew the building well. Former bakery employees stopped in to look around, and Rachel Beck, then the brewery’s sustainability coordinator, said that “they recognized their own workstations just from the spots in the floor, or they recognized some brick wall that they used to stand by. And it’s just really cool to see how much of the history of the building is still retained.”
