In the scenic hills of Southern Iowa lies one Amish community near Drakesville, Iowa in Davis county. Located 7 miles northwest of  Bloomfield, Drakesville at one time was a thriving community. Like many small towns, the population dwindled as businesses found it hard to compete with the large chain stores. Recently, Drakesville has experienced a growth in both business and population. Much of this is due to many of the Amish either moving into the area, or not leaving as they grow. There have also been new businesses that have started, see Amish Corners : www.AmishCorners.com
