Harper has yet to put a famous person on the list

In Iowa, 438 towns have someone on the list. Waterloo has the most of any town in Iowa: 61. After Waterloo, the next longest list in Iowa is Iowa City’s, with 54.

Who’s listed here

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