Road distance is always longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel time.

The name issue matters here

The query uses “Diamond Jo Casino Dubuque,” but the documented venue attached to this article is not the Dubuque property. The public reference sources here identify a Diamond Jo venue in Worth County, Iowa, and they also caution that the Diamond Jo name matches more than one property.

That means the safest useful answer is to describe the fixed location that is documented, and to avoid transferring any figures from one Diamond Jo property to another. If you need the Dubuque venue specifically, this article cannot measure or describe that separate property beyond noting that the shared brand name can cause confusion.

Fixed position of the documented venue

The documented coordinates are 43.446781, -93.354542. Those coordinates place the venue in Worth County, Iowa.

Using only what the coordinates support, this is a point in the Northern Hemisphere and the Western Hemisphere. Within Iowa, the longitude shows a position in the western half of the hemisphere but, more usefully for a reader, the venue is fixed to a specific point in Iowa regardless of where the reader starts from.

That fixed-position idea is important because venue names can be ambiguous while coordinates are not. If your own starting point changes, the venue does not; the way to verify your own trip is to compare your location with these coordinates on a map service and then check the route there directly.

Documented venue figures at this location

Publicly published reference sources describe this Worth County property as having 793 slot machines and 22 table games. The same sources state that it opened on April 6, 2006, and that the owner is Boyd Gaming.

Those figures describe a documented point in time. Facility counts, branding, and ownership can change as properties are expanded, reconfigured, sold, or rebranded, so readers should treat them as reference information rather than a live operational snapshot.

Documented straight-line distances

The table below lists every venue-to-place pair available for this documented property. Every figure is a great-circle measurement, which means a straight-line calculation between coordinates rather than a road route.

Why straight-line and road distance differ

A straight-line figure is the shortest geometric path between two coordinate points. Real trips do not move that way, because roads follow the available network rather than a direct line drawn across the map.

Several things make the road figure longer. Terrain can force bends, water can block direct travel, local and regional road layouts can require detours, and crossing state lines does not guarantee a straight continuation of the same route pattern.

That is why a great-circle number is useful for regional orientation but not for trip planning. It tells you how this Iowa venue sits relative to other places, while the current road route has to be checked on a live mapping service from your own starting point.

How to read the venue's regional position

The coordinates and the distance table together show a Midwestern location. The documented straight-line distance is 106.2 miles to Minneapolis, 273.3 miles to Milwaukee, 307.0 miles to Kansas City, and 310.3 miles to Chicago, which helps place the venue in relation to several major regional reference points.

The same table also shows that the venue is much farther in straight-line terms from coastal and far-west reference points such as Boston at 1127.6 miles, Miami at 1428.1 miles, Seattle at 1422.9 miles, Los Angeles at 1482.6 miles, and San Francisco at 1565.1 miles. That does not tell you a route, but it does show the scale of the venue's position within the wider United States and relative to Toronto at 699.0 miles.

If your real question is “where is it from me?”

Your position is variable, but the venue's position is fixed at 43.446781, -93.354542 in Worth County, Iowa. If you arrived looking for a “near me” answer, the reliable way to use this article is to take those coordinates and compare them with your own location in a map app that can calculate the current route.

This article can only publish the documented straight-line pairs shown above. If your desired starting point is not one of those listed reference points, then that specific pair is not one this article can measure.

What to confirm before you go

Before setting out, confirm the exact property name, because Diamond Jo is a shared name and the Worth County venue documented here is not automatically the same place a reader may have in mind when they say “Dubuque.” Confirm the map pin, the property branding, and the contact details on the venue's own location or contact page.

You should also confirm any live details that can change after publication, such as current access arrangements, parking setup, hotel availability if relevant to your trip, and any venue-specific services you expect to use. The authoritative current answer for those items is the property's own website and guest-services contact channel.

FAQ

Is this article about the Dubuque Diamond Jo?

No. The documented venue here is in Worth County, Iowa, and the public reference sources explicitly warn that the Diamond Jo name matches more than one property. Because of that ambiguity, this article stays with the fixed location and figures tied to the Worth County venue and does not transfer them to Dubuque.

Can I use the mileage table as driving distance?

No. Every figure in the table is a great-circle measurement, meaning a straight-line distance between coordinates. Road mileage is always longer, and the exact difference depends on the route network, water crossings, detours, and other path constraints. For an actual trip, compare the venue coordinates with your own starting point on a live route planner.

What is the most reliable way to avoid going to the wrong Diamond Jo property?

Use the fixed identifiers rather than the shared brand name alone. The documented venue in this article is in Worth County, Iowa, at coordinates 43.446781, -93.354542. Before traveling, confirm that the property page, map pin, and booking or contact channel all point to the same Iowa location you intend to visit.
