Indianola Hills, located between E 14th Street and Indianola Avenue, is a residential and park-adjacent Des Moines neighborhood with rolling topography and a creekside greenbelt. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Indianola Avenue corridor near E 14th Street, where small storefronts, service counters, and local hangouts set a steady, lived-in rhythm. Mid-century ranches and modest bungalows mix with mature trees and deep lots that follow the folds of the land. Easter Lake Park frames the southeast edge with trails, water views, and a broad horizon. The Des Moines Heritage Carousel adds a handcrafted, old-school landmark moment. The Great Outdoors Foundation’s campus brings an outdoors-and-education thread into the daily landscape.
