The Des Moines River and Raccoon River converge in this southeastern portion of Iowa's capital, defining a landscape of industrial corridors and diverse residential neighborhoods. The area south of the city center transitions from the urban density of Des Moines into the smaller communities of Carbondale, Avon, and Carlisle. Significant open spaces like Ewing Recreational Park and Lake Easter provide a green buffer amidst the expansion of Pleasant Hill.
