Des Moines is nice because it has most of the things you can find in a big city, just in a smaller package so the drive times are less. However, that's not true if you're trying to get around at rush hours. I lived in Waukee, and worked in downtown for a while. I usually worked 7-3, so I missed the worst of the traffic, but on the rare occasion I had to stay late it was really painful. And this was post pandemic. Still better than Denver, though!

Former Des Moines area resident. Biggest pro is definitely the people. I've lived on both coasts and while some places seemed close, no one has ever actually matched Iowans. Biggest con, however, is there's never a lot of things to do. On the west coast I could go to a beach then the mountains in the same day. On the east, I could just about do the same.

Des Moines metro is essentially a large corporate campus for the restaurant cartels, insurance, banking and agri-business. There is very little consideration in local government beyond those entities and their employees. Their presence is over represented. Iowa values large institutions over individuals in general.

There are small towns past the suburbs that have morning commute times of 25-45 minutes for 30 miles. These "exurbs" have older houses in good condition for under 200k. some under 100k in quiet towns with great schools and exceptionally low crime. These towns have shopping, restaurants, doctors, dentists, electricians, plumbers and so on. Job market, construction, engineering, medicine, finance, some factory, lots of hospitality, retail. Some of the factory jobs took a hit recently, but I don't expect a major downturn. Gardening is great. The smaller towns socially, they revolve around church, high school sports and arts, maybe the gun club. I live in Adel, I commuted to Des Moines. It was nothing like an east coast commute. Now that I've retired I walk my dog 900-1,000 miles a year in this quiet little town with nice parks and good sidewalks. Oh, the only real problem is that the presidential election cycle starts less than two years after the previous election.

Major con... Des Moines city government sucks. I'd argue that Iowa schools used to be good. Currently, they're a joke. Especially Des Moines district schools. Our state motto should be changed to, "Our Taxes We Prize, And Our Roads We shall Not Maintain" For pros, there are tons of parks and trails and even woods if you know where to look for em. You've got spaces like Margo Franko Woods Walnut Woods. Whatever the woods by the art center are called I forget, and not too far outside the suburbs you've got Ledges, Thomas Mitchel, Chichaqua bottoms and the green belt. Neil Smith. And just hundreds perhaps thousands of miles of bike trails that do pretty much connect just about every pat of the city and stretch well beyond the suburbs. Another pro... Our art center is pretty decent and it's by freewill donation. So you can just go for free if you are down bad or just stingy.

Iowa nice, fairly polite, but not real open. You can live next to your neighbor for years, have a great relationship, but never see the inside of their home. The settlers here, they endured a lot, fires, floods, disease, blizzards. The exuberant people, the emotional people, they perished or had their spirit crushed. Now generations later, they are still quiet reserved unemotional for the most part. For instance, a musician goes to the park with a guitar, in some cities a half hour later there are 8 people in a jam session. In the Midwest, the musician is treated differently, for the most part he or she is given space and not interrupted.

my rant, summarized and why Des Moines, like many USA cities, suck Urban vs. Suburban Living: Social Perceptions and Realities Perceptions of Urban Areas: Criticism: Suburbanites often describe cities as "ugly" and the people as "mean." Reality: In urban areas, the perceived "coldness" or "rudeness" is often just people minding their own business, going about their daily tasks efficiently. The density and diversity of urban areas necessitate a more pragmatic approach to social interactions. Suburban Advocacy for Car-Centric Lifestyle: Belief: Suburban residents might argue that car-focused cities foster happier, better communities. Counterpoint: This viewpoint overlooks the fact that car dependency leads to numerous issues, including environmental damage, increased accidents, and social isolation. The suburban ideal often equates freedom with car ownership, ignoring the broader consequences. The Risks of Car Dependency Increased Danger and Lack of Accountability: Punitive Power: Cars, referred to as "2-ton death machines," give drivers significant power, which can lead to dangerous situations with little accountability. Road rage, accidents, and fatalities are more common in car-dependent areas. Social Impact: The ability to cause harm with a vehicle turns the notion of "minding your own business" into a potentially deadly activity, contrasting with the lower risk of pedestrian-oriented urban environments. Forced Car Dependency: Limited Choices: Suburban living often means that the car is the only viable mode of transportation. This lack of alternatives imposes a one-size-fits-all solution, which isn't suitable for everyone. Irony: The suburban model imposes itself on society, despite its dangers and inefficiencies, while simultaneously criticizing the urban lifestyle that offers more sustainable and safer transportation options. The Imposition of Suburban Values Contradictory Nature: Close Proximity: While suburbanites might cherish space and privacy, the necessity of a car in suburban areas paradoxically reduces true freedom and increases dependence. Community Impact: Suburban sprawl spreads this car-dependent mindset, often influencing urban planning and policies to favor cars over people, leading to further entrenchment of these issues. Environmental and Social Costs: Deadly Mistakes: The stakes of minor errors become much higher in a car-centric world, where small mistakes can lead to serious injuries or deaths. Broader Implications: The push for car-focused cities ignores the environmental degradation, social fragmentation, and health risks associated with such a lifestyle. Conclusion Your argument underscores the inherent contradictions and dangers of a car-dependent suburban lifestyle. While suburbanites might view cities as unappealing and the people as unfriendly, this perception fails to recognize the practical and efficient social interactions typical of urban environments. Moreover, the imposition of car-centric values leads to significant environmental, social, and personal risks, undermining the notion that suburban living is inherently better or happier. Promoting walkable, people-focused urban development could address these issues, offering safer, more inclusive, and environmentally friendly alternatives.

Came back to Iowa disappointed to find that the unfriendliest people I’ve ever met were from my own home state. Lots of nice folks too, of course, but there’s a general air of misery, for lack of a better word. Everyone seems a tad repressed and depressed. And I could have some compassion on this if it weren’t for the constant assertion that we’re the nicest people in the world and better than everyone else (spoiler: North Carolinians and Germans take the cake, for me.)

A big con is the lack of funding for conservation in Iowa. We dont have much in the way of natural areas as Iowa is the most ecologically altered state in the union. Prairie once covered 85% of the state and we now are left with less that 0.1% of that original prairie. It’s really hard to find good parks that showcase the original beauty of Iowa. Poor management of woodlands and prairies means they’re overgrown with invasives and difficult to maneuver or enjoy. Water quality is also poor because of poor conservation practices in agriculture so enjoying our rivers can be difficult when you’re thinking about the chemicals and the soil runoff in the water. However, Des Moines is an excellent place for young entrepreneurs like myself. Young people are taking the reins in a way and deciding that we must make Des Moines a cooler place to live. We have a finger on the pulse of what younger people want and have all complained at one point or another of having nothing to do here. Des Moines is truly getting cooler and cooler every year and the culture here is hip with the small town feeling of knowing someone everywhere you go. We’re already a hell of a cool city, I’m excited to see where we wind up in 10 years.

You need a car to do everything. If you don't have one, you're screwed. Basically in american terms, iowa is the most average, boring place. But we have a unique opportunity in the next 25-30 years, to build places for people, and not 2 ton death machines as climate change and over pricing of the coast brings more people here. Hopefully we can build those communities starting yesterday, otherwise iowa is just another boring american city. Drive everywhere, complain about traffic and pretend to enjoy the outside.
@adnanomeragic9597

Like, a lot of the pros here about iowa being "nice," is due to the fact that it's a fake nice. If you see someone outside, which is rare, they are off work or not doing anything better with them time other than spending it for recreational purposes. So if someone is walking, they have carved out time in their day for a stroll, like you guys. Meaning they're usually not in a hurry. So if you see someone actually fucking walking outside, that's why. In other cities, where people have their lives, and walk places because they dont' rely on 2-ton death machines, they're going to go about their business. They're use to seeing people outside, in fact a lot of people. You can't stop and say hi to most people, or wave, they would normally think you're trying to scam them into something. But instead you have awful, terrible drivers (like any car-dependent city) has this issue: You can totally have nice, normal small talk conversation with a stranger in a grocery store. But once you leave that store, you in this hypothetical could have arrived by bicycle and that stranger will gun you down if you are in their way because once you are behind a 2 ton death machine with gigantic stroads, everything becomes an inconvenience to you, including that nice person you talked to the store. That's why it's a fake nice. The terrible road rage is the shock Iowans get when they're in New York City for example and new yorkers aren't nice to them. Iowan's are no nicer than someone from New York. It's just seeing someone outside equates to them expecting an entitlement of being nice "like waving, saying hello, etc," when in reality their car-brained minds can't comprehend their niceness is fake and they equate being outside with recreational time, not running your business / errands. That's why Iowans say hello to strangers outside, because it's done when time has been carved out for it and there's an expectation to do it since you don't have plans to go anywhere, other than meander about. Go to a real city where people actually walk, then it's like driving in Iowa or any other car-dependent place, honk and pass the biker closely and get irately mad.

Here it is, broken down by ChatGPT "Fake Nice" Critique: The idea that Iowans are "nice" is challenged, suggesting that this niceness is superficial and context-dependent. Implication: The commenter argues that the perceived friendliness in Iowa is situational and linked to recreational, not functional, activities. Walkability and Urban Living Contrast: In walkable cities, people are accustomed to seeing many others outside, often busy with their daily lives rather than out for leisurely strolls. Implication: People from car-dependent areas might not understand the dynamics of more pedestrian-oriented environments where interactions are different. Road Rage and Social Interactions Critique: There is a disconnect between the pleasant social interactions in places like grocery stores and the aggressive behavior exhibited on the roads. Implication: This discrepancy highlights a deeper issue with car-dependent culture, where being behind the wheel fosters impatience and hostility. Expectations and Realities Contrast: In more walkable cities, the expectation of casual greetings and friendliness isn't as prevalent because people are often focused on their own tasks. Implication: Iowans might interpret the absence of this friendliness as rudeness, not realizing it’s a different cultural norm. Conclusion: Cultural Disconnect Overall Message: The commenter suggests that people from car-dependent cities like Des Moines have a limited understanding of the benefits and social dynamics of more walkable areas. They may perceive friendliness and civility differently due to their car-centric lifestyle, which affects how they interact with others both inside and outside their vehicles. In summary, the comment critiques Des Moines for its heavy car dependency and the superficial nature of its perceived friendliness, contrasting it with the authentic, if brisk, social interactions found in more pedestrian-oriented urban environments. The underlying message is that with a shift toward more walkable infrastructure, Des Moines has the potential to develop a richer, more genuine community dynamic as it adapts to future challenges.
