Location

Richfield is close to everything!

Uniquely situated, literally wrapped around by the three large cities of Minneapolis, St. Paul and Bloomington — and with the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport directly to our east — we afford Richfield residents and visitors “access to anything and anywhere” in 15 minutes or less.

Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP) is one of the busiest airports in the world, with more than a half million takeoffs and landings each year. MSP is ranked among the top five airports worldwide for overall customer satisfaction. A $3.2-million expansion program recently completed added a runway, increased parking capacity and has made the airport more efficient, safer and enjoyable for travelers.

A light-rail transit system (LRT) has been put into operation, which allows quick, easy access to downtown Minneapolis from the Mall of America (MOA) in east Bloomington and the international airport area. This 11.6-mile route links the large economic and job centers in the region. Parking at the MOA and at nearby Fort Snelling give Richfield residents a convenient way to use LRT to attend games of the Minnesota Twins, Vikings or Timberwolves; attend theater or dine downtown. In coming years, the LRT line will link Richfield with areas to the west as far as St. Cloud, to the east to the State Capitol and downtown St. Paul, and northward to the port city of Duluth.

When we say Richfield is close to everything, it is not just a boast!
