Affordable living in the center of Brooklyn Park
True to its name, Central Brooklyn is located right in the heart of Brooklyn Park, a Minneapolis suburb. Although most of the neighborhood is residential, it is surrounded by Brooklyn Park’s main amenities, shopping centers and park. Plus, while the northern part of the area offers newer homes selling for higher prices, communities like Central Brooklyn, developed back in the 1960s through ’80s, are comparatively more affordable. “It’s one of the most affordable areas to get a large, two-story home that’s newer,” says real estate agent Caleb Carlson with Real Broker. “You can still get great big homes with access to the things that people need.”
