The average list price for homes sold was $142,500 during that same year. There has been an increase in demand for housing within the town over the past few years, which has driven up prices and led to a shortage of available properties.

One of the main reasons why people choose to live in Walnut is because of its close proximity to Des Moines and Cedar Rapids. Both cities are only about an hour away from Walnut by car, making it easy to get around if you need to go shopping or attend some events downtown. Additionally, there are plenty of restaurants and stores located within walking distance of most homes in town.

Some potential drawbacks to living in Walnut include its small size (only about 10 square miles) and lack of major attractions or activities that would draw tourists or other residents from outside the town limits. However, these factors may also be seen as advantages by some people since they make it easy for everyone who lives here to know each other and share common interests/activities without having to travel outside of town very often.
