The City of Clinton might still be a small hamlet named New York if not for a geographical good fortune. Platted as the town of New York in 1836 by its first settler Joseph Bartlett, the community was one of several clustered on the west bank of the Mississippi River. Other communities were Lyons, Ringwood, Chancy and Camanche.
”More home for the money” is a hallmark of housing in the Clinton region. Housing exists for all price ranges. Construction of single-family homes in the area is at a 25 year high with more and more families finding it makes sense to live in the area. All three communities are opening new subdivisions to construct new homes.
