==History==
Panorama Park exists due to a road maintenance controversy from the early 1950s. The city of Bettendorf ignored requests to maintain the thoroughfare known as Park Avenue, a dirt road which was often left icy or muddy. The neighborhood surrounding Park Avenue decided to incorporate the community as Panorama Park in an effort to pay for the road's maintenance directly. Since its 1953 incorporation, the residents of Panorama Park have maintained their independence, paying lower taxes than residents of the surrounding Bettendorf.<ref>{{cite web |date=December 10, 2019 |title=Panorama Park – the town tucked inside Bettendorf – remains 'as independent as a pig on ice' |url=https://www.wqad.com/article/news/panorama-park-the-town-tucked-inside-bettendorf-remains-as-independent-as-a-pig-on-ice/526-afab6b23-6344-4761-a424-e49a78ecbab1 |access-date=2022-04-12 |website=wqad.com |language=en-US}}</ref>

==Iowa's "fastest growing city?"==

In June 2006, a U.S. Census Bureau estimate stated that the town's population had grown to 261, a 135% increase.  This figure took into account a 2002 building permits report that stated 97 permits had been issued for dwellings.  Obviously, this was a mistake, for as the City Clerk noted in conversation with a news reporter, "I think we only have 54 houses in the whole town."  The town is expected to appeal the estimate—the only way it will be revised—and if and when this happens, Panorama Park will have been nominally both the fastest-growing and the fastest-shrinking city in Iowa.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Tibbetts |first=Ed |title=Mistake makes Panorama Park Iowa's fastest-growing city |url=https://qctimes.com/news/local/mistake-makes-panorama-park-iowa-s-fastest-growing-city/article_a8a4dc34-3913-5476-8e56-929aae7f9f74.html |access-date=2022-04-12 |website=The Quad-City Times |language=en}}</ref><!--From the Globe Gazette-->
