20 of the 38 entries could not be placed on a map: the register gives a PO box, a bare route number or a road junction rather than a street address, and 20 of those are currently on the register. They are listed and searchable here by name, city and county, but not on the map.

What the rules require

Iowa: questions

Which cities in Iowa have offices?
By count: Cedar Rapids (3), Des Moines (3), Waterloo (3), Council Bluffs (2), Davenport (2), Fort Dodge (2), Mason City (2), Ottumwa (2), Sioux City (2), Ames (1), plus 16 more. Addresses, listing class and, where the register publishes them, listing dates are in the list above.
Are these offices currently licensed?
The state register these records come from publishes no listing dates. Each of these 38 facilities appeared in the register when it was last refreshed, on September 27, 2026. Confirm the current position with the facility or the issuing authority before relying on it.
How many are rated?
27 of 38 have a Google rating, averaging 3.9 across 5012 reviews.
Why are some entries missing from the map?
20 of these 38 records give a PO box, a bare route number or a road junction instead of a street address, so no coordinate could be derived for them. They are still listed and searchable by name, city and county, and they are left out of the map and the "nearest to me" results. Placing a PO box at a plausible-looking point would make the map look complete and be wrong.

A listing closed, moved or missing? It gets checked against the source

Something wrong on this page?

These records come from state registers and the registers are not perfect. If a listing is closed, has moved, or the license details do not match what the state told you, say so and it gets checked against the source.
