Falcon Heights - The City That Soars!

Located just ten minutes from both downtown St. Paul and Minneapolis, we are the home of the Minnesota State Fair, with over a million visitors a year, and the University of Minnesota St. Paul Campus, whose wide open agricultural fields give our community a rural feel in the heart of the Twin Cities metropolitan area.

Falcon Heights was incorporated as a village in 1949 and became a city in 1974. The city occupies 2.28 square miles. According to the 2000 census, 5578 people of all ages live in our tree-lined neighborhoods.  Find out more about Falcon Heights by visiting our Community & Visitor Information pages.
