  • Dave R.
    "I’ve lived in Golden Valley for over 13 years having moved from South Minneapolis. As a first ring suburb, Golden Valley has easy proximity to the city, but maintains a wonderful suburban feeling. Neighbors are warm and welcoming. The city is vested in the population and community maintains great pride. It is a wonderful place in which to live. "

    "pretty good place to live I'd say no bad people it's not too much crime or car break-ins. friendly neighborhood usually. just some people are a bit rude depending on who they are and where you are the most friendly lots of people walking dogs. only problem is hard to find affordable living it's not too cheap here. but it is nice community nothing too bad. only problem is in the winter if you have an apartment it seems that they don't get on the plow of parking lots very well. so you may be caught or suck in your parking spot and that's very inconveniencing"

    "This location in GV is between Medley Park (tennis courts, trails, softball fields, play ground, ice skating, ice hockey, warming house and more) AND the General Mills nature reserve. The area is great for walking pets and meeting neighbors. It's a very friendly community that includes many young families as well as original homeowners. The best of both worlds."
