About Valeria

Tucked away in the quiet farmland of Jasper County, Valeria offers a peaceful rural lifestyle roughly thirty miles east of the Des Moines metro area. The tiny community got its start as a railroad stop in 1883, with local lore claiming it was named after a 19th-century romance. Today, it provides a slow-paced country setting where neighbors know one another and local students attend the nearby Colfax-Mingo school district. It is an easy fit for anyone looking for open space, quiet roads, and a quick drive into the city.
