Maple Grove received its highest ranking ever on Money Magazine’s “Best Places to Live 2014” list, an honor city administrator Al Madsen attributes to “the fine leadership from our mayor and city council, the dedication of city staff, and especially the investment that our residents, businesses and organizations have made in the community.”
The article highlights affordable real estate, booming job market, community centers and lakeside trails, while Mayor Mark Steffenson nods to the “strong foundation” resulting from the city’s “engaged citizens, vibrant business community and solid school district.”
