The city of trees in eastern Minnesota
Situated along the Minnesota River, the city of Eagan attracts Twin City commuters seeking more privacy without sacrificing urban amenities. “Eagan is incredibly convenient for commuting into both Twin Cities,” says long-time local Austin Eaton, agent at Real Broker. “I can be in Minneapolis or St. Paul in less than a 30-minute drive or be at the airport in less than 10. There’s no other community in my mind that’s better.” Established in 1860, Eagan has transformed from its agricultural roots as the Onion Capital of the U.S. into a metropolitan hub of technology and healthcare. Today, the city is also home to employers like Thomson Reuters, a data intelligence conglomerate, and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Minnesota, a health insurance company both of which account for more than 9,000 jobs in Eagan's workforce. The city is also known for its many trees, which are maintained through conservation efforts and forestry programs that promote ongoing beautification projects. “People move from all over the country for the great quality of life in Eagan,” says Mike Murphy, an Eagan resident of 25 years and a Realtor with Epique Realty. “It has everything; we don't need to leave the city for anything.” Add to that excellent school districts, convenient commercial hubs and a 20-mile commute to and from both Twin Cities, and Eagan stands out as the second-largest city in Dakota County.
Located in Dakota County, nearly 70,000 people call Eagan home.

Mature residences and lakeside properties
The real estate market in Eagan attracts a wide range of buyers, with entry-level pricing and robust estates backing up to some of the area's many lakes. “Neighborhoods in Eagan are more mature than other areas in the south metro; you’ve got more privacy, a majority of older builds from the '80s to the 2000s and plenty of wooded lots, that are appealing to a lot of people,” says Eaton, who has been selling in the area for over nine years. Most homes in Eagan cost around $380,000, however, prices can fluctuate depending on style, size and location. Here buyers can expect to spend around $100,000 for a one-bedroom condo to upwards of $1.5 million for a newly constructed, five-bedroom traditional home complete with waterfront views. As for new development, its more prevalent on the east side of Eagan. “There’s some new construction, but not as much as other more suburban areas,” Eaton adds. Homes with private lake access are most likely to be more expensive and will start around $700,000.
Many of the homes in Eagan have been updated or renovated.
