Who owns the towers in Van Buren County

Height and age
The median structure here stands 298 feet, 39 feet taller than the Iowa median — a sign of broadcast and rural coverage towers rather than short suburban sites. The tallest is a tower near Keosauqua at 435 feet, built in 1997. Most 70% were built in the 2000s.
Every registered structure
Sorted tallest first. The registration number opens the FCC record, which shows the exact location and the owner's contact for the structure. A tower on your land that is not in this list is probably under 200 feet and away from airports, so it did not need registering — see why some towers aren't listed.
