Des Moines Living

[Mr.Fungii]

Hello,

I am looking for some suggestions on where to live in Des Moines. Want to be 15-20 minutes from campus, want a 2 bedroom. Was looking for suggestions of nice apartment complexes that may not show up on apartments.com.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

One of the apartments right next to the DMU campus. Super convenient

Definitely don’t live 15-20 minutes from campus. Live across the street or down the block, there are plenty of 2 bedroom places for cheapish. You’re gonna regret that 20 min drive for a 1 hour mandatory lecture. Plus paying for parking is annoying. Pm me with specific questions I’m a third year

The area right around the school is nice and has plenty of apartments. Some classmates chose to live downtown (still <10min from campus) and liked it too. No need to live in West Des Moines or further out unless you want a house.

Also, on those annoyingly snowy and icy days, you want to be as close to campus as possible because I can guarantee DMU won’t cancel anything (even with severe weather warnings).
