ABOUT THE AREA
From the 17000 residents of Mercer County (part of the "Military Tract" back in the 1810s), approximately 3/4 earn private wages while the rest of the population works for the government, works at home, or is self employed; reporting a median household income of almost $41000 with just 1/10 of people facing extreme poverty conditions. Fifteen townships and more than 25 cities constitute the communities in this territory of almost 570 square miles of extension sharing frontiers with Rock Island, Knox, Henderson, Des Moines (IA) Warren, and Henry Counties.
