Headquartered in Hills, Iowa, with operations conducted exclusively within the state across multiple offices in counties including Johnson, Linn, and Washington, Hills Bancorporation was incorporated on December 12, 1982, as the holding company for Hills Bank and Trust Company, which traces its origins to 1904.
