Things Brooklyn Park needs to improve

Natalie Apr 9, 2025

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 13 years ago from Boston and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in North. It's tough for what you get.

Jobs: The market is affordable right now, especially in government. If you're in real estate you might struggle.

People: Generally surprisingly good. It took about 18 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: underrated. Tons of options if you like Indian.

Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 9 years ago from Chicago and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Downtown. It's pretty good for what you get.

Jobs: The market is stable right now, especially in consulting. If you're in marketing you might struggle.

People: Generally pretty good. It took about 9 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: hit or miss. Tons of options if you like BBQ.

Would recommend to anyone considering it..
