Waukee, IA Apartments for Rent

Located just west of Des Moines in Dallas County, Waukee has experienced significant growth over the past decade. This suburban community, established in 1869 along The Milwaukee Railroad, combines historic charm with contemporary development. The city gained attention when Apple announced plans for a $1.38 billion data center campus in 2017, adding to the area's expanding business landscape.

Waukee features well-maintained parks and recreation areas, including the paved Raccoon River Valley Trail and Triangle Park in the historic downtown district. The city's location provides convenient access to West Des Moines and downtown Des Moines, both approximately 15 minutes away. Local amenities include shopping centers along Hickman Road, multiple parks throughout the community, and various dining establishments in the growing downtown area.
