    "Great Character in the homes. People are super friendly and you will likely see them outside doing one thing or another. We’re close to the interstate and very centrally located."

    "Beaverdale is the hidden gem of Des Moines. Wonderfully unique and character filled houses, beautiful big trees and fantastic people. It is like a little village - safe friendly and outstanding to live in. Close to everything but hidden enough away to feel that it is it's own place."

    "The "Chamberlain Heights" neighborhood in the Waveland Park Association is fantastic! Neighbors are active with yearly block parties and you meet so many people as they walk their pets, or stroll over to the Shops At Roosevelt."
