Home News Workforce Infrastructure Services Quality of Life CDC Goals Properties Resources Contacts Newsletter | STRATEGIC LOCATION Mount Carroll is centrally located within a large triangle made up of three major metropolitan areas—Rockford, Illinois; Dubuque, Iowa; and the Quad Cities of Iowa and Illinois. We are also centrally located within a smaller quadrangle made up of moderately sized communities—Clinton, Iowa, Galena, Freeport, and Sterling-Rock Falls, Illinois. Our location uniquely positions us for enjoying the benefits and quiet beauty of life in a small, rural community yet having easy access to the jobs and services available in those larger communities.
