About Pleasant Hill
Pleasant Hill sits about 6 miles east of downtown, on the bluffs between the Des Moines River and Four Mile Creek. The Census counts 11,136 residents, a median home built in 2002, and 78% of homes owner occupied, one of the highest rates on this site. Its housing is mostly 1970s and newer ranches and two-stories, where the window question is usually whether original or second-generation windows are worth replacing all at once. NOAA lists 47 hail days within 6 miles since 1996, and the largest stone reported within 6 miles was 2.5 inches, on March 5, 2022.
