Centered on Jordan Creek Town Center, 50266 blends suburban calm with a lively shopping and dining scene. Renters will find modern apartments and townhomes near the Mills Civic and Jordan Creek corridors, walkable to cafes (Friedrichs, Starbucks, Caribou), groceries (Hy-Vee, Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s), fitness studios, and nightlife at West Glen Town Center (rooftop patios, live music). The area offers four-season Midwest living—warm summers, snowy winters—and plenty of green space, with lakeside strolls at Jordan Creek’s boardwalk, miles of connected biking/walking trails, and nearby golf at Glen Oaks Country Club. Community vibe skews young professionals and families; it’s pet friendly with plentiful sidewalks, pocket parks, and easy access to larger off-leash areas nearby. Commuters get quick I-35/I-80 access and a short hop to downtown. According to Zillow’s recent market trends, 50266’s median asking rent has hovered around the low-to-mid $1,000s in recent months, with most listings ranging roughly $1,000–$2,100+, depending on size and finishes.
