Mason City, a city of about 27,000 people, is the seat of Cerro Gordo County and the hub of North Iowa. It is the hometown of Meredith Willson and the inspiration for River City in The Music Man, celebrated at Music Man Square, and the North Iowa Band Festival brings marching bands from across the Midwest each spring.
Frank Lloyd Wright's Historic Park Inn Hotel and Stockman House draw architecture fans, and MercyOne North Iowa Medical Center and North Iowa Area Community College are major institutions. US-65 and US-18 run through the city and I-35 is a few miles east near Clear Lake, so billboards reach regional shoppers, students and travelers.
