About
123+ years of community banking.
Iowa banking. The way the rest of the country used to do it.
Our story
Heartland State Bank was founded in 1903 and has served the region ever since. We were chartered in 1903 in Cedar Rapids by a co-op of corn farmers. They wanted a bank that would lend against a handshake. That handshake is now in writing, but the philosophy is the same.
Today we serve more than 381,000 customers across 3 branches.
