Altoona is where Iowa comes to have a good time, and it turns out it’s also a pretty great place to call home. Sitting just east of Des Moines off I-80, this Polk County city packs in more activity than you’d expect from a town of roughly 20,000 people. Adventureland amusement park anchors the northwest corner of the city, while Prairie Meadows Racetrack and Casino sits just steps away. When the excitement settles down, residents can spread out across the city’s well-kept public parks, which offer plenty of room to breathe and enjoy the outdoors. Downtown Des Moines is less than 20 minutes by car, giving easy access to the metro’s dining, arts, and employment hubs.
The rental market in Altoona offers solid variety, from garden-style apartment communities and townhomes to newer builds that reflect the city’s steady growth. The city takes its name from the Latin word for “high,” altus, a nod to the elevated terrain surveyor Julian B. Bausman noticed when he laid out the city in 1868.

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.
