Brooklyn Center, like most inner ring suburbs, experienced its greatest growth after the Second World War, so today it boasts a concentration of apartments and houses with that 70s look. Not that there’s anything wrong with that…

The city’s schools enjoy a good reputation. It’s home to Brown College, North Hennepin County Community College, and the Minnesota School of Business. The beautiful Earle Brown Heritage Center has everything you need for events and was even rated the top wedding site by Twin City couples. Just minutes from Minneapolis, there’s easy access to everywhere else via Interstate 94/694 and Highway 100.

But you don’t have to go far to find plenty to do. Brooklyn Center’s Community Center is seriously tricked out, with an Olympic-size swimming pool, gym, water slide, wading pool and sauna. Elsewhere, you’ve got basketball and tennis courts, ball fields, hockey rinks and a par 3 golf course. Located right on the Mississippi River, Brooklyn Center’s not hurting for parks and playgrounds—they’ve got 522 acres of ‘em, with 20 miles of walking and biking trails. Hit it!
