Apple Valley Real Estate – Northstar MN MLS Member

A large Dakota County suburban city, Apple Valley has made the Money Magazine “Best Places to Live” list several times. On the eastern side of I-35 and the I-35 split, it’s about the same distance from the Minneapolis St. Paul metro area as neighboring Burnsville. Incorporated in 1969, its growth has been dramatic since then, altering the city from a rural community into a thriving modern suburb quickly.
