The area is characterized by tree-lined streets, sidewalks, and manicured lawns. Residents enjoy a variety of things to do, with major recreational attractions like the expansive Des Moines Water Works Park, the Arie Den Boer Arboretum, and Gray's Lake Park, which hosts events and offers amenities such as trails and a beach.
