A midcentury neighborhood within commuting distance of Minneapolis
In the early 20th century, years before the invention of four-wheel drive, New Hope, Minnesota, was primarily farmland. Incorporated as a city in the mid-1930s, housing developments soon followed. "Some farmers wanted new amenities, some were content with the ways things were going," says the city's communications coordinator, Beth Kramer. "Ultimately, it was necessary to have new infrastructure." Holiday Park, a quiet neighborhood sandwiched between New Hope's city center and Highway 169, welcomed dozens of families during the suburban boom of the 1960s and '70s, and Kramer says it's still a popular area today. A winding network of midcentury homes surrounds the neighborhood's namesake park, and residents live within walking distance of schools, grocery stores and churches. It's the type of place where people tend to stick around for decades. "Maybe the parents settled, and now the children are living here," explains Kramer. "People will go through high school, move away, then come back to raise their families."
Several streets in Holiday Park are nice quiet cul-de-sacs.
There are over 21,000 residents living in New Hope, Minnesota.

A namesake park, summertime events and an aquatic center
The neighborhood is anchored by its namesake park, where families will find a small playground and open field space. Kramer speaks to the city's "robust" parks system, noting, "One of the great things about it is that almost every residential home is within a quarter mile of a community park." There are more amenities at Civic Center Park, which is only a few blocks away. Civic Center's recently renovated facilities include an aquatic park with a vortex pool, paved walking trails and a skate park. The New Hope Performance Center hosts summer theater camps, live music and family movie nights throughout the summer season, and nighttime temperatures can drop down into the 50s and 60s, so attendees pack blankets and sweatshirts. Minnesotans are also known for taking full advantage of winter weather. Here, it's common to see several inches of snow on the ground or to experience sub-zero temperatures. The city is also home to three outdoor skating rinks with warming houses and an indoor ice arena for when it gets "too cold to skate outdoors," according to Kramer. The New Hope Citizen Advisory Commission also hosts a snowman-building contest every year.
The New Hope Aquatic Park is a summertime oasis for everyone.
The namesake park for the neighborhood has a large playground with a climbing wall.
