Growing Fast in the Business World

The metropolitan area of Minneapolis/St. Paul is the 15th largest metro area in the U.S., and the eighth fastest-growing metro area in the country. As a result of this population spurt, the Forest Lake Area is experiencing increased commercial/industrial development. Two industrial parks and a third in development provide businesses and employment to area residents. Wal-Mart and Target are just a few of the major commercial enterprises that have chosen to locate here.
