South Des Moines' 50315 blends suburban calm with quick access to downtown, set along rolling, tree-lined streets near Fort Des Moines Park and the Blank Park Zoo. Expect four distinct seasons—snowy winters and warm, sunny summers—plus a down-to-earth community of long-time locals and new renters. Daily conveniences are easy: Hy-Vee and Fareway for groceries, Southridge Mall for big-box shopping, and coffee stops like Scooter's or Starbucks; fitness is covered by South Suburban YMCA and nearby trails. The dining scene ranges from classic B&B Grocery, Meat & Deli to taquerias along SE 14th, and Confluence Brewing adds a local taproom vibe. Recent Zillow market trends show the median asking rent around the low $1,100s, with most listings over the past few months typically ranging from about $900 to $1,600, keeping the area relatively affordable. Families and pets fit in well here thanks to generous yards, neighborhood parks, and easy highway access and short drives to the airport and downtown.
