Most operate as mayor–council.[2]

According to the 2020 Census, 2,014,831 of Iowa's 3,190,369 residents lived in urban areas, accounting for 63.1% of the population.[1] The first city to incorporate was Farmington on January 11, 1841, while the most recent was Maharishi Vedic City on July 25, 2001.[3] The largest city by population and by land area is Des Moines with 214,133 residents and 90.65 square miles (234.8 km2).[4] The smallest city by population is Le Roy with 11 residents.[1]
