What farmland looks like in Brooklyn Center

Brooklyn Center is a city of about 33,800 people on the Mississippi River north of Minneapolis, where many homes date to the 1950s.

Brooklyn Center is close to Minneapolis, with homes built largely after World War II and quick access to Interstates 94 and 694.

The homes
The average home in the city was built in 1957, and one-story ramblers from that period are common.
Schools people ask about
Brooklyn Center Community Schools serves part of the city, and neighboring districts serve other parts. The address decides which.
Getting around
Interstates 94 and 694 meet in the city, and Highway 100 and Highway 252 run north and south.
Nearby
26 parks and a 20-mile trail system in a city of about eight square miles.
The trade-off
Most homes are about 70 years old, so the ages of the roof, furnace, windows, and sewer line matter.
