What's Happening in Davenport - Community Events
There is no way you live in the Quad Cities and you haven't heard of The Bix 7, even if you aren't a runner. And that's because this race consumes the city of Davenport all weekend long with fun activities for all! But back to the race. The course for this 7-mile race begins at the steep and long Brady Street Hill. After you conquer the hill racers fly through the historic McClellan Heights neighborhood which is also a bit hilly in its own right! If not the type who wants to run a race, come cheer on those who are battling it out for their age groups, or just out to have a good time!

What's Happening in Davenport - Restaurants
Davenport, Iowa makes up 1/4 of what is referred to as the Quad Cities. Davenport is located along the Mississippi River, and because of this, it has had a vast industrious history. This history is clear even today as you walk through the downtown area or visit the Village of East Davenport. The buildings and homes in the area are a delightful mix of old and new, with many of the older homes restored back into their former glory. The same can be said about many of the dining establishments in the area. So many of the restaurants are housed in renovated buildings that were meticulously restored and converted to places we now frequent. Agents in our Davenport Office have shared their favorite restaurants, cafes, coffee shops, and breweries throughout Davenport, many with rich histories of their own!
