Moving back to Iowa (DesMoines)

Hello, I currently live in Oregon. I am originally from the wloo/cedar falls area. I have spent little time in Desmoines. My wife and I are expecting to have a child in 8 to 9 months, so we decided on moving back to Iowa. I landed a job working for Lennox in DesMoines. We are renting for a year or 2 until we can buy a house. The place we have paid for is a 2 bedroom house on Garfield in DesMoines. It looks like a nice quiet neighborhood. Can anyone tell me if this is a decent location in Desmoines? It's near the fairgrounds. I'm basically just wondering if this is a good area of Desmoines. I want my family to feel safe and be secure. I just dont want to move to a bad neighborhood where I need to worry about crime and theft. Thank you for your input !
