Hancock blends neighborly traditions with practical perks for everyday life. Set within Stevens County along the Highway 9 corridor, it offers quick connections to Morris and the academic energy of the University of Minnesota Morris. Families appreciate the low-key pace, well-kept streets, and easy access to regional research, ag, and clean-energy innovation at the West Central Research and Outreach Center.
Education shines here. Students attend the single-campus Hancock Public School (ISD 768), known for small class sizes, supportive staff, and competitive Owls athletics. County services are close at hand through the Stevens County government, while summer calendars fill up with concerts, food stands, and rides at the ever-popular Stevens County Fair. Need a broader menu of restaurants, healthcare, or arts programming? The City of Morris is just minutes away, and the university adds lectures, performances, and intramural fun to the mix.
Outdoors, residents make the most of wide-open skies and lakes country weekends, with trails, hunting, and fishing opportunities throughout the area. Commutes are short, block parties are common, and local businesses know their customers by name—making it easy to feel at home quickly.
