A small city 145 miles west of Minneapolis
Marshall, Minnesota officially became a village in 1876, then incorporated as a city in 1901. At that time, the city’s population was just over 2,000. Since then, the population has grown to roughly 14,000, and much of the city’s growth is a result of the city’s status as “a regional center for employment, education and health care in Southwest Minnesota,” says Mayor Bob Byrnes. “The largest employers are Schwan’s Company, U.S. Bank’s small-cap leasing division, agricultural processing facilities — both corn and turkey — and our health care system, Avera.”
The city of Marshall is a major hub for residents who work in the agricultural industry.
Downtown Marshall has an interactive guide for shops and restaurants in the area.

A range of homes in high demand
With its longstanding history, Marshall has a significant number of homes built in the early 1900s, and popular styles include colonial revivals and ranch-style homes. For those homes needing updates, prices can start around $45,000, while newer and more up-to-date homes can sell as high as $670,000. The median home price is around $225,000, slightly more than the national median home price. “For the past several years, there have been very few homes on the market,” Mayor Byrnes says. “So there is more demand than available homes.”
Colonial and Cape Cod style homes can be located in certain parts of Marshall.
Marshall is a growing city and there are many new home developments with lots of available plots in the outskirts of town.

The city is also home to the Red Baron Arena, which hosts a number of hockey tournaments for youth and amateur leagues. The arena, May Byrnes says, “brings in a lot of tournaments, especially youth tournaments. And those bring in a lot of families.” The arena and other athletic facilities in the city help keep the city lively. “Our hotels are typically always full,” Mayor Byrnes says. “Our hotel study says we need about another 80 to 100 rooms in the community. Nearly every weekend there’s something going on.”

There is a small airfield within Marshall, but flights are limited to private and charter flights. The closest major airport is the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport in Minneapolis, roughly 145 miles east of Marshall.

Naturally, it’s cold in the winter
Data from the FBI shows Marshall’s crime rates are usually lower than state and national rates. Environmental data shows the risk of natural disaster is low and Marshall’s air quality is better than most other cities in the state. Summers are warm, rarely surpassing 90 Fahrenheit, but winters are cold, windy and snowy. The snow season lasts nearly 6 months, and the city typically gets around 20 inches per year, though residents are well-prepared, roads are cleared quickly, and the cold winters do little to impact day-to-day life.
