My wife and I have gone to either Boone or Jefferson for our last several DL renewals. With this move, it gives us even more reason to keep going out of Dallas County. Both these places have had no lines to wait in and very friendly staff to help you. I feel very sorry for those people who have trouble navigating the traffic in the Des Moines metro area or new drivers going there to take a driving test.
