Split by I-380 and sitting just southwest of the Cedar River, the Southwest area of Cedar Rapids attracts residents with its under-three-mile proximity to downtown and easy access to major roadways. Area apartments provide opportunities to live in exciting urban spaces, along the river or overlooking the neighborhood's green spaces. Jones Memorial Park on Wilson Avenue SW provides numerous recreational opportunities for locals, including a top-notch golf course, a swimming pool, a soccer field, a disc golf course, and tennis courts along with walking paths, picnic pavilions, and playgrounds.

Residents of the Southwest Area don't have to venture into the city proper to find unique dining experiences. Los Compadres on 6th Street SW provides authentic Mexican fare, while Pei's Mandarin on the same stretch proffers Japanese, Korean, and Chinese cuisine. Cel-Red Supper Club on 16th Ave SW draws in crowds with classic American food.
