Des Moines neighborhoods, 101 please
I am currently in Des Moines, or more specifically, WDM. I am staying at a hotel, and intend to start my search for apartment housing tomorrow. I do not yet have a job. I moved here from out-of-state because I like Iowa as a whole. (scenic, imo). Driving down Grand Street today heading East from
WDM, I noticed many nice neighborhoods, and they all had unique neighborhood names. Is there a place I can go online to view all of the
neighborhoods, say, on a map? I have not found such an online site.
Otherwise, can someone with a good sense of the greater DSM area
give me a verbal sketch of the neighborhoods? Utimately I hope to buy
a house in the area, but not for another 6 mos-12 mos. I appreciate your input.
ps.. it would be preferrable if I could get hired first and then rent an apartment after I know where I'm be working. But at $50 a night for
a motel room, I am not prepared to spend that kind of money.
For the record, I am a commercial driver, truck or bus. I may try and
get that same type of employment. Thanks!
