If you are hell bent on staying in Iowa, id look at a carrier with an ORD base (not spirit, theirs is shrinking) probably United or American.
Frontier is probably some of the best QOL you will get if you live in base, that being said, if you are open to moving. A big and growing F9 base could have you enjoying your QOL easily.
Commuting sucks and there is no way else to put it, but some people find that commuting for their family and needs is more important than moving to any airline base and will gladly do it. That choice is up to you.

Where are my old XJTers at? FUPM.
