Neighborhood Description This is a great place for children and to raise a family. There is a pond between this house and the neighbors - there is a family of Canada geese who come here every spring to nest - they can be seen leading their babies through the yard on a regular basis. Deer and turtles also pass through the lawn and nibble on the vegetation. The Des Moines river is a quarter mile away and there are many hiking trails through the woods in this area. This area is a naturalist's dream and a place where it truly is still safe to allow children to run free and play and just be children!! The United Community School District features small class sizes, individual attention, and unique teacher qualifications . The school is located in the country which allows for large and safe playgrounds as well as a several acre wetland and nature preserve that allows the students a unique opportunity to explore the natural world.
