The Easter Lake Area on the southeast corner of Des Moines is a lightly-developed community that feels more like a rural farm town than a neighborhood in the capital city. The landscape balances charming subdivisions, heavily-wooded parks, and open fields to create a uniquely pastoral environment just fifteen minutes from Downtown. The lake itself is surrounded by popular beaches and recreation areas, with large greenspaces like Ewing Park providing even more opportunities to spend quality time outdoors. The local shopping scene ranges from big-box stores to the expansive Southridge Mall, mainly clustered near 14th Street on the west side. With a diverse selection of affordable apartments, houses, townhomes, and condos in the Easter Lake Area, you’ll find the perfect spot to fit your lifestyle.

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.
