Coon Rapids Real Estate & Homes for Sale in Minnesota

Coon Rapids: Situated in Anoka County just outside the Twin Cities metropolitan area, Coon Rapids combines the best of urban living with suburban charm in an ideal location along the shores of the mighty Mississippi River. In its early days, the 23–square mile Anoka Township epitomized rural living. The area primarily consisted of farmland and dirt roads. A brickyard, dam and riverside power plant were organized in the early 20th century, introducing industry to the agricultural community. The township was renamed Coon Creek Rapids, which was later shortened to Coon Rapids. Since the city’s incorporation in 1959, its population has exploded. The serene suburb is now home to more than 60,000 residents and is among the 10 largest cities in the state. Fostering the municipality’s growth is its business-minded atmosphere. Many employment opportunities – especially in the medical and educational sectors – await newcomers. Restaurants and retail centers also boost prosperity, as well as providing diverse dining and shopping opportunities to residents and visitors. Though undoubtedly thriving, Coon Rapids hangs onto its cozy hometown hospitality. Encouraging this community spirit are the schools of the Anoka-Hennepin School District. With preschool programs, elementary and secondary schools and the Anoka-Ramsey Community College available, students are given the tools they need for individual and community success alike. Supplementing studies is the diverse and thorough collection of the Crooked Lake Library. Coon Rapids real estate is affordable. Available property types range from single-family homes to cozy condos and townhouses, with some waterfront homes available.
