Inver Grove Heights: Dakota County South Metro
Inver Grove Heights sits in northern Dakota County along the Mississippi River bluffs, about 12 miles south of St. Paul. Built primarily in the 1960s–1990s, it features a mix of ramblers, split-entries, and two-story homes with many furnaces reaching replacement age.
