Homes in Minnetonka are more expensive on average than homes in surrounding communities, and the City was interested in the potential "market leakage"--that is, purchasers looking to buy a home in the Minnetonka area but ultimately choosing to buy in a neighboring community--for mid-priced housing. Minnetonka project lead and community development supervisor Elise Durbin worked with students in HSG 5464: Understanding Housing Assessment and Analysis, to determine the mid-priced housing market for Minnetonka, as well as the neighboring communities of St. Louis Park, Hopkins, Plymouth, and Eden Prairie. Their analysis showed that Minnetonka lacks smaller, low-priced housing in comparison to surrounding communities. The students' final report and presentation are available.ensustainabilitylocal governmentMinnetonkahousingMinnetonka Projects, 2012-2013Comparative Housing Market Analysis: Minnetonka and Surrounding CommunitiesPresentation
