Summary[edit]

Description

The Quad Cities are a group of five cities straddling the Mississippi River on the Iowa–Illinois boundary, in the United States. These cities, Davenport and Bettendorf (in Iowa) and Rock Island, Moline, and East Moline (in Illinois), are the center of the Quad Cities Metropolitan Area, which, as of 2013, had a population estimate of 383,681 and a CSA population of 474,937, making it the 90th largest CSA in the nation. The Quad Cities area is midway between Minneapolis and St. Louis, north and south, and Chicago and Des Moines, east and west.

The name "Quad Cities" for a group of five has resulted from the history of the community.
