      City - West Des Moines

      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.

      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.

      Do not go here

      Place is infested with roaches and they don't do anything to get rid of them. They are very slow to get back to you with maintenence issues. My shower has been broken for 2 months and water has been coming up through my bedroom floor for a month now and they haven't even got back to me about fixing it. Very over priced place for the crap you have to deal with

      9/15/21
      Do not rent here. You can find.better at lower cost.

      Do not rent from this place. I lived there for multiple years. They over charge for the lack of service they provide. There is black mold and cockroaches. They have a deal with crow tow and will tow cars from places not labeled with signs. Professionals come in to fix and give recommendations and the company refuses to complete them. I became friends with a past mantaince man who left because the new staff was doing things shady.

      a place to live

      these apartment are ok the floors are uneven and you can feel your neighbors walk cause the floor vibrates and the halls are not very clean i have called to the office twice about the outside lights not being on at night being a women i don't fell safe

      9/7/15
      Good location.

      Although kind to potential tenants, staff seems overworked. Although spacious, units appear poorly maintained. Tenant issues could be managed better with adequate quantity of staffing. It appears behind the scenes management executives or owners are more interested in making money than having a quality reputation. This is not a four star complex.
