Here's what Ken & his team have to say about Plymouth:
“Where to live is a question that impacts so many aspects of your life. Housing, Jobs, Activities, Schools, Costs, all affect your quality of life. Money Magazine has compiled its new list of top places to live in 2008 and this year Plymouth, MN tops the list! Plymouth can boast about a school district that consistently ranks as one of the top in the state. They have plenty of open areas for those who enjoy the outdoors, without being too far away from jobs and other activities. Home prices can be found at several levels, with a typical 3 bedroom, 2 bath home, running near $350,000. Nearly everything is within a 20 minute drive, so you won’t be spending hours in the car to reach the Airport, Mall of America and the Minneapolis Downtown area. “
