Built around residential subdivisions on the western edge of Des Moines, Windsor Heights grew into an independent inner-ring suburb in central Iowa. Incorporated in 1941, it remains a compact community between Des Moines and Clive, where residential streets meet the wider metropolitan area. Walnut Creek and the Walnut Creek Trail form a green corridor through the city and link to the region’s extensive trail network. Colby Park serves as a central public gathering space, while University Avenue is a familiar commercial route with local businesses and services. Windsor Heights is best known as a settled, close-in Iowa community rather than a separate urban centre. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across central Iowa.
