Moving to Plymouth

Plymouth is a frequent choice for buyers moving to the west side of the metro area. I'm Lesley, a REALTOR® with Bridge Realty.

What is Plymouth like? It is in Hennepin County, about 10 miles west of downtown Minneapolis. Its subdivisions curve around ponds, parks, and wetlands, and the city counts 863 cul-de-sacs along 300 miles of streets.

The detail that out-of-state buyers miss

Four school districts serve Plymouth: Wayzata, Robbinsdale, Osseo, and Hopkins. Two similar homes a mile apart can be in different districts. An online listing may not make this clear, so we confirm the district for every home before you tour it.

Lakes and roads

Medicine Lake, at 902 acres, is the second-largest lake in Hennepin County. Interstate 494 runs through the middle of the city, Highway 55 runs toward downtown Minneapolis, and Highway 169 runs along the east side.

The steps for buying from a distance are on our relocating to Minnesota page. More about the city is on our Plymouth page, and the purchase itself is covered in buying a home in Plymouth.
