Inver Grove Heights: A Modest City 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) Inver Grove Heights is a good choice for a city if you don't mind a little commuting to Minneapolis, as it's a little bit outside the city.

There's a lot of job and education opportunities in Inver Grove Heights since it's pretty close to a couple bigger cities. There's also the Inver Hills Community College if you want to pick up a course or two at night.

On average, the job market pays a little bit better than the state average. The real estate is priced reasonably too. You can pick up a nice looking ranch for just a couple hundred thousand dollars.
