Awful Education With An Incredibly Low Crime Rate 3.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 28, 2018) Living in Worthington, MN means a lot of things depending on what you're looking for. The crime rate is decently low which is awesome and always a consideration, I believe, when deciding to move to a new place. To add to that our cost of living is just above average, but at least ...Read More it's better than nothing. Housing opportunities are slim to none and employment opportunities are about the same. Good education is rare (there isn't one) so if that's something you're looking for especially if you have a family I wouldn't recommend the move here.

If you’re looking for a location with okay employment opportunities and a low crime rate then living in Worthington is for you. However, the amenities that come with the terrible housing are incredible and you have a choice between so many safe and reliable options in the area. We have a good variety of local restaurants, diners, and coffee shops that are perfect for meeting up with friends, holding business meetings, or meeting new people. Read Less
