About Adams County

Adams County was established by the Iowa state legislature in 1851 and was officially organized on March 12, 1853. The town of Quincy served as the first county seat, though in 1872, that distinction was moved to its present location of Corning.

Today, Adams County is home to over 4,000 residents and boasts miles of scenic rolling hills and a variety of economic, retail and recreational opportunities throughout the year.
