The Quad Cities are four cities which straddle the Mississippi River in the midwestern United States. They are as follows:

Davenport, Moline, and Rock Island were originally called the Tri-Cities, becoming the Quad Cities with the addition of East Moline, which is an official part of the Quad Cities. As Bettendorf grew its population passed East Moline but the name "Quint Cities" never caught on, though there are a few local businesses that bear the name.
