"Alex really is the definition of 'Minnesota Nice.' People are friendly, welcoming, and there’s just a sense of community that’s hard to describe unless you live here. "

My Alexandria Experience
I’ve lived in Alexandria for 7 years, but it’s been a part of my life for much longer than that. I grew up in the small towns surrounding Alex, and even though we moved a lot, Alexandria was always the place we came back to for shopping, activities, and to see friends. It was the center of everything for me growing up.
Even after I moved away, we’d come back every summer to vacation. Eventually, my husband and I decided we were tired of just visiting, we wanted to live where we already felt most at home. So we made the move, and we’ve never looked back. It’s where we’ve built a life, a business, and a community that means the world to us.
A Favorite Memory
There are so many it's hard to chose! Any day spent with our friends and family on the lake.

It’s more than just where we live now. It feels like it’s always been home. Alex isn’t just a spot on the map, it’s in our heart.
