Brooklyn Park & Brooklyn Center

Brooklyn Park is Minnesota’s sixth-largest city and is home to over 80,000 residents, half of whom are people of color. ⅕ of Brooklyn Park residents were born outside of the United States, and 25% speak a language other than English at home. 

In addition to its diverse community, Brooklyn Park prides itself on its beautiful outdoor spaces (including two golf courses, 60 parks and 53 miles of paved trails), modern transportation options and vibrant arts, music and entertainment scenes.

Brooklyn Center stands "at the center"—a 10 minute commute to downtown Minneapolis pairs with easy escapes into nature to create a unique experience for each of its over 30,000 residents. When you visit Brooklyn Center, you'll find a large variety of shops and restaurants in one of the state's most diverse cities.

Looking for a bite to eat? "The Brooklyns'" 100+ restaurants are sure to satisfy. From soul food to Liberian flavors and from Vietnamese delicacies to authentic Mexican spices, there's something here for every palette.
