About Center Junction
Center Junction is an unincorporated village and census-designated place (CDP) in Jones County, Iowa, United States. The population was 100 at the 2020 census. It is part of the Cedar Rapids Metropolitan Statistical Area.
Center Junction was once an incorporated city, but following a special election that served as a referendum on the plan, the city council voted in 2015 to sell off its assets, disband, and turn administration over to the county. When the council took the action, then-Mayor Sandy Ricklefs cited the town's ailing finances as the primary reason for disbanding.
