Part of the Cedar Rapids, Iowa Metropolitan Area, Walker lies just off the 920, creating convenience in location for its residents and visitors alike. The city’s namesake comes from the chief engineer of the Burlington, Cedar Rapids, and Northern Railway, W.W. Walker. Rich in history, residents pass by the historic train depot established in 1873, Rock Island.
Locals find ways to celebrate their community throughout the year. One of the most significant events is Pickle Days, which lasts for the entire month of July. Here everyone can enjoy local eats featuring fried pickles, a dunk tank, face painting, a parade, and so much more. The local learning center provides weekly activities for children. Walker City Park invites everyone to gather and partake in outdoor fun, including swinging, baseball, soccer, and grilling.
To the east of East Branch Blue Creek, newcomers will find common structured neighborhoods with tree-lined streets and corner stop signs. Further east, established homes are nestled on more extensive tracts of land, and farmhouses can be found throughout the outskirts of town.
