Fairmeadows, located between Valley West Drive and 22nd Street, is a residential and retail West Des Moines neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and pocket green space. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Valley West Drive and University Avenue corridor, where storefront plazas, salons, and casual eateries set a steady, day-to-day rhythm. Housing leans toward tidy single-story homes with mature trees, plus a few low-rise apartment communities. Sidewalks and short blocks connect daily errands with nearby parks and trails. Valley West Mall and the Jordan Creek Town Center area shape the local shopping and dining scene. Raccoon River Park adds water, trails, and open lawns to the neighborhood’s edges.
