Living in Maple Grove, MN
Despite being among the largest suburbs in the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area, Maple Grove retains something of a small town vibe throughout the residential neighborhoods. The city is well spaced out, ensuring residents can typically find all they need within walking distance. Parks and lakes lend a touch of nature to balance out the commercial spaces, while residents can enjoy a huge array of restaurants, cafes, and bars, as well as almost unrivalled shopping experiences and entertainment.
However, as one of the major commercial centers in the metro area, the city experiences large influxes of visitors at certain times, causing heavy traffic, particularly around the Shoppes at Arbor Lakes area. Parking can often spill out onto the streets, especially after working hours, causing further delays.

At Fish Lake you can rent out kayaks and paddle boards, while Central Park of Maple Grove is packed full of trails and other features to keep the whole family entertained all day. Head to Elm Creek Park Reserve for superb hiking trails, plus the stunning 15-acre arboretum.
After taking in all that fresh air, why not unwind at Minnesota's first 'lifestyle center'; The Shoppes at Arbor Lakes. This 412,000 square feet shopping mecca is home to all the typical, well-known stores, as well as a huge array of smaller, upscale boutique shops such as Pottery Barn and Brooks Brothers. You’ll find more than 65 stores and restaurants within the complex, as well as a movie theater, cafes, gyms, and much more. Several smaller shopping complexes can be found throughout the city if you just need to grab some essentials. For fresh local produce, a farmer’s market runs every Thursday afternoon throughout the warmer months.
The community center is a great place to gather for fun throughout the year, with indoor and outdoor pools, ice rinks, and community picnics. The Town Green is a great place to relax, as well as take in some live music during the Sounds of Summer series of free concerts. For a look at local culture, head to Bunce Backyard Productions, a small, family run theater, showcasing a number of spectacular shows throughout the year.
