What is Plymouth, MN like? It is a large suburb of winding residential streets set among lakes and wetlands. The city counts 863 cul-de-sacs along its 300 miles of streets, which tells you a lot about how its neighborhoods are laid out.

How Plymouth is laid out

Plymouth became a village in 1955 and a city in 1974, and most of its neighborhoods were built in the decades since. Instead of a street grid, you will find subdivisions that curve around ponds, parks, and wetlands.

  • Single-family neighborhoods, many on cul-de-sacs, with homes from several decades.
  • Townhomes and condominiums, where we review the association's dues, rules, and reserves before you make an offer.
  • Homes near the lakes, around Medicine Lake and Parkers Lake.

One detail matters more here than in most cities: four school districts serve different parts of Plymouth. Two similar homes a mile apart can be in different districts, so we confirm the district for every home you consider.

Lakes and parks

  • Medicine Lake. At 902 acres, the second-largest lake in Hennepin County.
  • French Regional Park. A regional park on Medicine Lake, with trails and a swimming beach.
  • Parkers Lake Park. A city park with a swimming beach.
  • Hilde Performance Center. An outdoor stage that hosts summer concerts and community events.

The commute. Interstate 494 runs north and south through the middle of Plymouth, Highway 55 runs toward downtown Minneapolis, and Highway 169 runs along the east side.
