History

Though once a thriving community, Booneville eventually saw a decline in population with reduced use of the local railroad as well as urban sprawl. The town of Booneville now is comprised of a restaurant and bar, a few stores, a Methodist church, and a few dozen homes.

Booneville lies directly northeast of the Raccoon River, and a boat ramp near the town is used frequently.

Booneville may be annexed by West Des Moines, which lies only a few miles away.
