Considered a town within a town Prairie Trail offers a unique lifestyle. The concept of this development was to get families back on their front porches, less emphasis on the garage access, and provide community greenspace where families could interact with each other. The District at Prairie Trail was developed to provide those families convenience and walkability to shopping, restaurants, and entertainment. This provides an urban feel to otherwise a very suburban city. Certainly, if you are looking for a large yard or acreage for kids and dogs to run Prairie Trail might not be for you. The yards tend to be on the smaller side but the community offers several parks and green spaces for kids to play within the neighborhood. Cascade Water Park is also built into the center of this community for all Ankeny residents to utilize and two elementary schools are within walking distance. If you have always liked the thought of urban living but want a great community to raise your family Prairie Trail is worth looking into.
