West Des Moines is located in three Iowa counties. Residents of this area enjoy perusing the local shops at Valley Junction, which began in 1893. Today it serves as the city’s business district, flavored by undeniable community tradition. With more than 100 specialty shops, art galleries, and restaurants, there’s always something new to discover.
On the other side of West Des Moines, Jordan Creek Town Center occupies a large fashion space that includes a 3.5-acre lake and boardwalk. Many apartments are just minutes from the mall’s stores, movie theater, and lakeside restaurants. The city is located in America’s heartland and has cherished quilting since its existence. Quilt-making goes back to the 18th century in West Des Moines, and many people proudly display their creations at city craft expos.
In addition to quilting, residents of West Des Moines enjoy the local productions at Tallgrass Theatre Company on Vine Street.

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.

Property Ratings at Meadow Ridge
Meadow Ridge has been a great place to live. I lived there with my Mom before moving out of state and she stayed for several years after. It's location, location, location! Close to the interstate and minutes to both Jordan Creek and Valley West. Having an apartment with a standard huge and beautiful fireplace is amazing for the cold Iowa winters as well as having a garage! I encourage you to check them out!
Nice apartments with full size washer and dryers. They have several apartment layouts to choose from, depending on what you are looking for. The location is great, very close to the interstate and only a few miles from downtown Des Moines. It is only a few miles from the Jordan Creek area and Valley West Mall. It is safe and quiet. The rent is very reasonable for West Des Moines. The apartment staff is friendly and helpful when called for repairs or questions. I really enjoy living here!
