Get the door, it's the liquor store

Ankeny reigns over the Des Moines metro area like a beaming sun, situated a cozy 10 miles north of downtown along either Highway 69 or Interstate 35. With a population below 70,000, Ankeny is Iowa’s seventh-largest city and is one of the fastest-growing places in the state. That type of... momentum can go several ways, but Ankeny is focusing its growth into positive channels. It made the top 10 list for the best cities for families and MONEY Magazine’s Top 100 Places to Live list. That’s a long way to come since 1881 when the town had just seven houses, a couple of shops, a rooming house, a school, and a depot. Today, it’s got shopping galore, a great school system, tranquil outdoor spaces, and a high standard of living — all while being a couple of minutes from downtown Des Moines. Perks aren’t hard to come by in Ankeny, but if you can stomach one more, let us drop this one on you: Drizly partners with local liquor stores to deliver alcohol straight to your door in 60 minutes or less. That’s a guarantee. All you have to do is visit our app or website and order the beers, wines, and/or spirits of your choosing. Leave the rest to us. Read More
