Would you live in Lakeville or Eagan?
My wife and I are looking to move to Lakeville or Eagan. I have read countless Reddit discussions about suburbs and the general consensus I see is that Eagan > Lakeville. However, I just wanted to create a new form to discuss some things that are more tailored to my preferences to see which city aligns better.
My priorities are
- My kids
- Good housing
- Things to do
When it comes to my kids, I feel both Lakeville and Eagan are top school districts, and that I really can't go wrong. My goal here is to be around other like minded parents who make their kids a priority. I also want there to be neighborhoods where my kids can make a lot of friends.
When it comes to housing, it appears Lakeville actually edges Eagan out here. In my price range (450-600k), my wife and I are really liking the house options more in Lakeville than Eagan. I know that this can change, but currently this is where we stand.
Finally, it appears Eagan edges out Lakeville when it comes to activities to be involved with. I am personally a big pickleball player, and I know Chips is a great facility.
Individuals who are more familiar with these two areas, what do you recommend, and why?
