About Des Moines, WA
Discover what makes Des Moines such a great place to live and explore.
Des Moines, Washington sits on the Puget Sound between Seattle and Tacoma, offering a relaxed waterfront feel with easy access to bigger-city conveniences. The marina and waterfront parks are central gathering spots, and it’s common to see people strolling along the shoreline with a light marine breeze or a bit of mist in the air. Small local eateries, coffee shops, and community events help downtown feel neighborly without being far from everyday services.
Living options range from apartments and townhomes near Pacific Highway to single-family homes on quieter residential streets, with some properties enjoying Sound views. For commuters, it’s a straightforward drive to major job centers via I-5 or SR 99, and the area’s proximity to Sea-Tac Airport and nearby transit connections can make getting around simpler. Many residents like the balance of access and calm, with parks, trails, and the waterfront providing easy ways to unwind close to home.
