Des Moines has a surprising amount of bike paths and sweet breweries. It’s a pretty sleepy town but if you happen to get stuck here there are some charming spots!
⭐️ All 💵 Cost 📡 😀 Fun 👮 Safety 🌤 Feels 46° 115° 34° 93°🥵AQI 55✈️18min€2,415 / mo34MbpsI’ve lived here for 11.5 years & been a landlord the entire time. A 1 bedroom starts at 1000, and that’s not in the city center. I have no idea why they’re saying it’s dangerous. There’s literally cops putting bike traps up to tempt people into stealing because there’s so little crime. It’s incredibly safe and welcoming to people of all races & genders. It’s also dry, incredibly dry with forest fires in the summer so the smoke can be intense for several months. It’s not rainy
