The downtown area is one of my favorite places to go to! It's right next to Lake Minnetonka, and it's a very cute little town with many restaurants. Everyone is very nice and friendly, and most of the residents are fairly wealthy.
A beautiful area surrounded by lakes, Wayzata is a manicured suburb. The public school system is robust, boasting high test scores and offering innumerable after school activities. The area is family friendly but there is still plenty of places for young people to go out and hit the town at night. Wayzata is a wonderful place to grow up!
Wayzata has gorgeous homes and good neighborhoods but offers little else to justify its high prices. It's an image you buy more so than a home; a place for people to seclude themselves in upper class culture. Although it has a few unique stores and restaurants to visit, it's much too small for there to be anything to do. Even the library, though pretty, has poor selection and services in comparison to libraries such as Rigedale's. You'll find more restaurants, clubs, community classes, etc. in Minneapolis itself. It's best to spend your money in central Minneapolis where the art scene and nightlife are thriving.
