Osceola County, Location in Iowa
Osceola
County's Upper Midwest location lowers transportation costs for
both supply and distribution east and west. NAFTA shippers will
profit from the excellent access to north-south rail and highway
systems.
U.S. Highway
60, State Highway 9 and 59 serve the immediate area. Interstates
29, 80, 90 and 35 are nearby. U.S. Highway 60, currently being
improved to a four lane divided highway across Iowa, connects to
Omaha and Minnapolis/StPaul.
