Mounds View blends suburban ease with abundant green space and quick metro access. Set in Ramsey County and neighboring Shoreview, it’s minutes from Minneapolis via I-35W and Highway 10, making commutes and cultural outings straightforward. Weekends often revolve around the water and woods—Long Lake Regional Park’s beaches, trails, and picnic spots are close by, and the Rice Creek corridor invites biking, birding, and quiet paddles. Inside the city, Silver View Park’s boardwalks and fishing pier add a nature escape without leaving town.
Families value the strong academic reputation of Mounds View Public Schools; the district’s offerings span rigorous coursework, arts, and athletics through Mounds View Public Schools (District 621) and programs at Irondale High School. The city’s services are easy to tap, from permits to recreation through the City of Mounds View, and the Ramsey County Library – Mounds View branch anchors year-round learning with story times, study spaces, and maker events.
Housing ranges from well-kept mid-century ramblers shaded by mature trees to thoughtfully updated homes and select new builds, offering options for first-time buyers and move-up households alike. Summer’s Festival in the Park, neighborhood playgrounds, and everyday conveniences along Mounds View Boulevard create a down-to-earth rhythm that’s easy to love.
