Well, it really depends on what kind of place you like. Personally, I don't like Elk River at all, but I've got some friends who live there and like it a lot. I've also got some friends there who can't wait to get out. Elk River has about 20,000 people. It is on the Mississippi River in Sherburne County. It has a historical downtown occupying a few blocks. As far as housing opportunities, it's good. It has old houses, somewhat old houses, somewhat new houses, new houses, lots for sale, and some mixed apartments, and some pretty new townhomes. There's houses in the town there, and houses in the country there. The "big" stores there are: Target, Wal-Mart, Cub Foods, Home Depoe, Menards, Coborns, as well as a bunch of medium and small stores. Elk River has a somewhat famous hockey team, which is a really good team, and 3 guys who graduated from Elk River High. Elk River also has a reputation for being a big meth town. I see Elk River like this: too small, too far out, kind of run down, oh yeah-and I don't know why but it seems almost every time I go there, it seems like it's overcast there, I don't know why.
