Solon is a very small city located in the state of Iowa. With a population of 2,626 people and just one neighborhood, Solon is the 158th largest community in Iowa. Much of the housing stock in Solon was built relatively recently. The construction of new real estate can often be taken as an indication that the local Solon economy is robust, and that jobs or other amenities are attracting an influx of new residents. This seems to be the case in Solon, where the median household income is $71,750.00.
Solon real estate is some of the most expensive in Iowa, although Solon house values don't compare to the most expensive real estate in the U.S.

Solon is a good choice for families with children because of several factors.

Many people own their own single-family homes, providing areas for children to play and stability in the community. Finally, Solon’s overall crime rate ranks among the lowest in the country, making it one of the safest places to raise a family.
