Review of Des Moines, Iowa


Ugly city. Very ignorant.
Star Rating - 2/6/2006
I have been in Des Moines for the past 5 years. The city is ugly. There is very little for young people to do. And, the people (for the most part) are ignorant to other cultures, and other points of view. In fact, when I travel, and tell people I'm from Des Moines, they wonder why the hell anyone would want to live there! I wonder too! I'll be out in a year! Thank God!
