City - Des Moines

Just south of SeaTac Airport between I-5 and Puget Sound, Des Moines is a large suburban community just minutes from both Seattle and Tacoma. With an abundance of affordable apartments, condos, and houses in town, Des Moines is a great option for commuters who work in either of the neighboring cities, as well as for students, faculty, and staff at Highline College.

This section of the Puget Sound shoreline allows easy access for boaters, and several recreational marinas operate in the area. The landscape slopes sharply toward the water in many places, providing unbeatable scenic views from as far inland as the Interstate.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Poorly managed and old

Not sure where to begin with all the problems. Heater only works for about 10 minutes and then doesn't work again ever. There's no a/c. The apartment and everything in it is old. May as well leave the windows open as it makes no difference with the noise. They say you have 2 parking spots for a 2 bedroom, but they give you 1 close and then make you park far away for the other 1. Which leaves you having to walk a distance to get to your car. They won't swap parking out, so we can each have a spot closer to our building. They act nice to get you in and then don't follow through on maintenance. The apartment has mold in the windows and bathroom. The refrigerator leaks water all the time. The grout on the floors is breaking off. The cabinets are uneven with peeling fake covering. They advertise wood floors (hahaha). They are the cheapest laminate floors that peel up. You can't even mop without it causing water damage. Make sure if you do move in, you get the top floor for the balcony. Otherwise the tenants above you poor water onto your balcony when they water their plants or spill something. The kids like to knock on people's doors and then run. No one does anything about it. The list goes on.

Under pressure

We moved into a apartment that had a hole full of mold in the bathroom celling, they promised to have it fixed before we moved in so they did a quick patch up job, immediately the mold came back and all they did was cut a hole and left it open with unknown water dripping for 4 months. Nails constantly come out of the carpet of our apartment, we had a short time to look for a apartment and they were within out budget and made sure to let us know that if we did not take it as soon as possible we would loose it.
