Why Live in Pleasant Hill

Pleasant Hill, Iowa, lives up to its name as a quiet, nature-oriented community just minutes east of downtown Des Moines. While it’s closely connected to the metro area through paved trails and major highways, Pleasant Hill maintains a distinct small-town feel with its own city government, local events and neighborhood parks. Highway 163 runs through the area, separating newer developments to the north from more established neighborhoods to the south, which are often zoned to different school districts. Housing options in Pleasant Hill are diverse. Longtime residents live alongside newer homeowners in a mix of 1960s to 1980s split-level homes and modern single-family houses and townhomes. Subdivisions like Copper Creek feature New Traditional homes with golf course or lake views, reflecting the city’s steady growth over the past few decades. Townhomes provide more affordable options, while the overall median sale price sits higher than Des Moines proper. Community life centers on local parks, trails and events, including farmers markets, concerts and seasonal festivals around Copper Creek Lake. With several parks, recreational leagues, golf, boating and trail connections, Pleasant Hill offers an active lifestyle. Although car-dependent, Pleasant Hill’s location near Highway 163, U.S. Route 65 and Interstate 80 makes commuting easy. Residents enjoy suburban comfort with strong ties to Des Moines, while still feeling rooted in a community of their own.
