Clio has yet to put a famous person on the list

The longest list of any town in Iowa belongs to Waterloo, with 61. Iowa City has the second-longest list in Iowa, after Waterloo, with 54. Across Iowa, 438 towns list someone born there.

Who’s listed here

Famous people come from Wikidata (people whose birthplace is Clio), checked against each person’s English Wikipedia article and ranked by how many Wikipedia languages cover them. Nobody born in Clio has passed that check yet, and nobody born within 35 miles is listed.

From Wikidata and Wikipedia: people whose birthplace is Clio and whose English Wikipedia article agrees, ranked by how many Wikipedia languages cover each person. People known mainly for crimes, and adult performers, aren’t listed. “The usual town” = everyone born in the towns gathered so far.
