Stanton is a rural community in an agricultural setting with a rich historical tradition well balanced with a future-facing outlook. That is all made possible by actively involved, caring community members that are focused on small-town community and family values. Set among the rolling hills of southwest Iowa, Stanton has natural beauty to explore and enjoy. The Greenbelt Trail is a three-mile walking trail that connects multiple parks, playgrounds, and athletic facilities. We are also located just a few miles from Viking Lake State Park.
