Arden Hills is a peaceful community with a major Twin Cities employer
Even as the headquarters of Land O' Lakes, one of the metro's largest employers, Arden Hills maintains a peaceful atmosphere about 10 miles from the Twin Cities. Rolling hills and scenic lakes encourage people to spend time outside, whether they're boating on the water or hiking on one of the city's many trails. Highly rated schools and community events give the area a family-friendly vibe. There are shops and restaurants close to home, but easy highway access means you can travel anywhere in the Twin Cities.
Tony Schmidt Park in Arden Hills includes dog-friendly walking trails.
Arden Hills borders I-694 for easy access to both Twin Cities downtowns.

Mid-20th-century and lakeside homes have high demand
While there are some older farmhouses, most homes were built after 1950. New Traditional and ranch-style houses are common. Homes farther from the lakes typically range from the low $300,0000s to the mid-$800,000s. As you get closer to the water, you'll find properties with stunning views that can cost over $2 million. There are some townhouses and condos available, which typically cost between the mid-$100,000s and the mid-$500,000s. The market moves much faster in Arden Hills than the national average. "We don't have a ton of inventory — demand is higher than supply," says Realtor Jim Diffley with the Jim and Shelley Diffley team of Edina Realty, who has been selling homes in the area since 1998.
Ranch-style homes are incredibly common.
Arden Hills homes are on rolling hills.

Seemingly endless outdoor recreation in Arden Hills
With seven lakes and over 100 acres of city parks, it's no wonder that Arden Hills is known for its outdoor recreation. Mayor David Grant spends a lot of his time on Lake Johanna. "I like the size," he says. "It's very picturesque." You can access the water from Tony Schmidt Regional Park, which has a beach, fishing pier and playgrounds. Other parks include:
Crepeau Nature Preserve, which has wooded trails
Cummings Park, with amenities like athletic fields and courts near Karth Lake
Perry Park, where people can play hockey and let their dogs run around off leash
An extensive trail system connects most parks, which locals use for recreation and for getting across the city.
Lake Johanna in Tony Schmidt Regional Park is popular for family outings.

Students attend highly rated Mounds View and Roseville schools
Most homes are zoned to the Mounds View Public School District, which includes Mounds View High School. Students have plenty of opportunities to earn college credit, from Advanced Placement courses to classes in the Articulated College Credit program. "This community has really good schools, top-rated schools," Grant says. Both the district and the high school earn an A from Niche. Some parts of the city are in the Roseville Public School District, which receives an A-minus.
Two of the city's major employers are Bethel University and the University of Northwestern, which are private, Christian schools in the area.

People from across the Twin Cities commute to Land O’ Lakes, Inc
While many residents work at one of the universities, Arden Hills' largest employer is Land O' Lakes, Inc. Commuters take advantage of access to the major roads like U.S. Highway 10 and interstates 35 West and 694, as well as Metro Transit buses that stop in the city. You can reach downtown Minneapolis and downtown Saint Paul in about 10 miles, usually about a 20-minute drive.
Local restaurants and shops along Lexington Avenue
Arden Hills' dining scene is a mix of chains and local spots like Lindey's Prime Steak House. "[It's] a complete time capsule to 1955," Diffley says. "It's very unique and cool." Other options include:
The Tavern Grill, known for its customizable pizza and burgers
Flaherty's Arden Bowl, a bowling alley and Irish pub
Namaste India Grill & Brewhouse, which serves Indian street food and craft beer
The Winkin' Rooster, a sandwich shop with soups and salads
Residents can do most of their shopping along Lexington Avenue, where they can find big-box stores and grocery options like Trader Joe's. Roseville's Rosedale Center is only a few minutes away and has department stores and popular apparel brands.

Planned and casual community events bring people together
Arden Hills has a very friendly atmosphere. "We have neighborhoods with laughing children riding bikes and amazing neighbors," says city councilmember Emily Rousseau. Part of the reason people get so close is community events like the Penny Festival every summer, which features games, food and more informal gatherings. "Neighbors get together and have St. Patrick's Day parties and Easter egg hunts — you know your neighbors," Grant says. "It's a great place to raise a family."
