What to know about buying or selling in Apple Valley
- Neighborhoods date from the mid-1950s onward, so home age and updates vary from street to street. Compare the systems, not just the price.
- The METRO Red Line follows Cedar Avenue with three stations in the city, and MVTA runs express buses. Check how close a home is to them.
- The city is divided into trash hauling zones with set collection days, and recycling is required.
- Dakota County keeps the tax records. Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan (ISD 196) serves most of the city, so confirm the district for each address.
