"Ranked Among 'Best Places to Live'"

Eden Prairie has been recognized as one of the Top Cities to live and raise a family according to Money Magazine's "Best Places to Live". I think it has a small town feel... yet it is close to everything the metro has to offer.

In addition to attractive residential neighborhoods and affordable housing options, the city boasts nearly 10,000 acres of recreation space including walking and biking paths, lakes, and parks.

With a multitude of award-winning restaurants, a super-regional shopping center, top ranked schools, and a variety of entertainment and lifestyle choices... it's no surprise that 99% of residents rate the city as a great place to live.
