Why Live in Benson

Benson, Minnesota, with a population of fewer than 3,500, offers a blend of small-town charm and diverse opportunities. The city has a rich history as a trading center since the late 1800s, with agriculture still playing a significant role in its economy. Major employers include the local hospital, schools, and manufacturing companies. Housing in Benson primarily consists of single-family homes, including Victorian cottages, bungalows, Cape Cods, ranch-style, split-level, and bi-level homes. The city has a limited number of apartment complexes and townhouses, but there is a growing demand for duplexes. Outdoor recreation is abundant, with Brock Field offering baseball and softball diamonds, Benson Park featuring a golf course and public pool, and Ambush Park providing camping, fishing, hiking, and kayaking opportunities. Roosevelt Park hosts a Music in the Park series every other summer Thursday. The Mini Sota Agricultural Children's Museum is under construction, celebrating the city's agricultural roots. Benson's downtown area, intersected by an active train track, includes locally owned restaurants and boutiques along Pacific and Atlantic Avenues, with a farmers market held every Thursday at Railroad Park. The Whistle Stop Diner, located in a historic train car, and Benson Bakery are popular spots. Traffic is generally light, except when trains pass through hourly. Benson is accessible via U.S. Route 12 and Minnesota state highways 9 and 29, with St. Cloud 85 miles northeast and Minneapolis 140 miles southeast. The local health center is Central Care – Benson Hospital, and the nearest international airport is in Minneapolis.
