|  Big enough to have lots of resources and opportunities, small enough to be accessible.
The capital city of Iowa and a center for insurance, government, publishing, business, and more, Des Moines is a great place to land internships or start a career, enjoy modern art or classic architecture, experience metropolitan amenities or explore scenic bicycle trails. The city’s diverse offerings include the antique shops and one-of-a-kind boutiques of historic Valley Junction; downtown’s lively East Village and Court Avenue districts; a zoo, science center and art museum and the annual Des Moines Art Festival, which is ranked among the top fine art festivals in the country. But don't just take our word for it. In its July 2008 issue, Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine named Des Moines one of the top ten best cities in the country to live, work and play.
