Neighborhood

South Des Moines is a buzzing suburb in the city of Kent between Tacoma and Seattle. Charming single-family homes in an array of styles sit along busy residential streets just minutes from the east shore of the Puget Sound and Downtown Kent. The neighborhood attracts renters looking for beautiful beaches, a diverse community, and a small-town feel. Lake Fenwick Park sits in town, offering lush greenery around the lake, a disc golf course, and jogging trails along 141 acres. Along the water just outside of the neighborhood lies Saltwater State Park, featuring campsites, volleyball courts, and scenic views. Local restaurants, businesses, schools, and churches are spread throughout the community, but the remainder of South Des Moines is residential. Plentiful apartments are available for rent in this verdant oasis, ranging from mid-range to upscale.

Above Average

The apartment is in a great location very near to the Des Moines Marina. he only caveat to living in Des Moines is the air traffic overhead. You can probably hear and see the airliners above at least every 7 to 10 mins. The apartment units itself is a little old but standard. A little drafty and can get moldy if you dont stay on top of it. The service is not bad and not great because of frequent turnover in the office. Wish they can enforce their rules on smoking and parking.Because of the draft the smell of the cigrattes can be linger also many people park their car with the rear facing in so the car exhaust smell can enter people's apartment as parking is right next to the apartment buildings.
