About the Community of Coon Rapids
Although a rapid business boom has established Coon Rapids as the second-largest growing suburb in the metropolitan area, the city still maintains much of it's natural environment through beautiful parks, lakes, creeks and woodlands. Situated along the Mississippi River, Coon Rapids continues to attract new businesses (particularly among high-tech and medical companies)because of its appeal as a venue of available business sites a short 13 miles from Minneapolis. The 23-square mile city includes manufacturing, medical services and education as the city's major industries. Its largest employer is Mercy Medical Center with 1,400 people employed.
