Anoka County Reviews
Rating 3.94 out of 5 18 reviews
Anoka county is a great county for families. As part of the Anoka-hennepin school system, school communicate between each other and make decisions together. Anoka county offers several leisure time places for families and is overall a very family friendly county. It offers a diversity of schools/school types but is not very diverse when it comes to etnicity.
It is a very small town, easy to get around, and the community is welcoming! I attend the high school in Anoka, it is very friendly school but could use some attitude adjustments, as the tone of the school has shifted in the recent years. My favorite part of Anoka is the downtown area.
It's nice because it's not in the city, not as much crime, relatively quiet with all the advantages of the city, like malls, buses, fast food, and restaurants. We have everything the city has except the population and the crime. The school's are better and the roads are not crammed with traffic. The people are friendlier not so rushed. One thing is the rent and property is higher up north where I live, but it is worth living in a cleaner environment. People take more pride in their property making them look nice. I would recommend living in the outer skirts of the city if you have children.
