Spacious Lots & Natural Beauty
Johnston is widely recognized for its abundance of spacious, single-family homes set on generous lots. The housing stock is primarily composed of executive-style two-story homes and sprawling ranches built from the 1990s through today.
This newer inventory means you benefit from modern open floor plans and large garages without sacrificing nature. Many neighborhoods here incorporate mature timber and rolling hills, giving you a sense of privacy and "room to roam" that can be difficult to find in more densely packed suburbs.
Nature-Rich Living & Lakeside Recreation
Johnston offers a distinctive blend of upscale suburban living and rugged natural beauty, serving as the metro’s gateway to the outdoors. The city’s crown jewel is Saylorville Lake, providing residents with unmatched access to boating, fishing, beaches, and camping just minutes from home. This focus on nature extends to impressive hiking, biking, and kayaking trail systems, including the Trestle to Trestle Trail and the Beaver Creek Water Trail.
While famous for its green spaces, Johnston is also a thriving economic hub, home to the global headquarters of major corporations like Corteva Agriscience and John Deere Financial. This vitality supports a top-tier school district and a clean, modern community aesthetic. It is the ideal destination for those who want a peaceful, tree-filled retreat without sacrificing economic opportunity or modern conveniences.
Academic & Athletic Excellence
Johnston is recognized for its top-tier public education, with the Johnston Community School District consistently ranking among the best in the state. The district is known for high academic standards and extensive college-credit opportunities, ensuring your student is prepared for their future career.
Johnston also prioritizes athletic excellence. Johnston youth participate in a wide range of school-sponsored sports clubs. And they enjoy easy access to elite athletic facilities in neighboring Grimes like the 515 Fieldhouse and the GrimesPlex.
While the public schools are a major draw, the city's location offers families an easy commute to nearby Des Moines metro private options including Des Moines Christian and Dowling Catholic.
Efficient Travel from the North Metro
Johnston residents enjoy a convenient balance of suburban peace and interstate accessibility. The commute to downtown Des Moines is typically a manageable 20-minute drive, utilizing the I-35/I-80 corridor or major thoroughfares like Merle Hay Road. And the corridor provides comparable access to western suburb's office parks, business centers, and entertainment options, like West Des Moines' Jordan Creek Town Center.
For those preferring public transit, DART provides targeted support through its Express routes, offering a relaxing, direct link to the downtown business district for the workday commute.
