Welcome to Walford, Iowa
A Small-Town Community Built for Growth

Walford is a vibrant community where small-town character meets modern opportunity. Founded in 1884, we've grown from a railroad settlement into a close-knit town where neighbors know each other, children ride bikes to the park, and families thrive. Today, we blend our rich heritage with forward-thinking progress—as a Smart Rural Community, Walford offers residents advanced fiber-optic connectivity and the infrastructure of a modern town.

Located just minutes from Cedar Rapids and a short drive from Iowa City, Walford offers the best of both worlds: the peace and safety of a close-knit community with easy access to big-city amenities, culture, and opportunity. Our median household income of $116,000 and strong, family-oriented population reflect a community built on economic stability and civic pride.

Whether you're visiting, considering a move, or already call Walford home, you'll find a community rooted in tradition, supported by strong schools and real-world opportunity, and focused on a bright future.
