Want to Get Paid to Move?

Sounds wild, but it’s true. A few towns right here in the Midwest are offering cold, hard cash AND awesome perks to people willing to call their community home.

At a time when housing costs feel sky-high, towns in Iowa and Minnesota are flipping the script, boosting their economies and welcoming new neighbors with open arms and open checkbooks.

This Iowa Town Wants to Pay You Cash to Call It Home:

How about a cool $10,000 to move to Iowa?! No joke. You could be living in a small city of about 15,000 just a half hour from Des Moines with quite a sweet housewarming gift of cash!

Other things you'll find in Newton: the Jasper County Historical Museum, peaceful strolls at the arboretum and botanical gardens, charming boutique shopping, and high-octane fun at the Iowa Speedway.

Get Paid to Relocate to the Cedar Rapids Area:

If Newton isn't your jam, how about Eastern Iowa? The MakeMyMove Greater Cedar Rapids program is offering more than $5,600 in relocation incentives to remote workers ready to call Cedar Rapids, Marion, Hiawatha, and the surrounding metro home.
