Come home to Scott

Scott’s growth over the last few decades proves that big ideas and rock-solid neighbors form the strong backbone of a thriving community. Some of us have lived here for generations on a family farm and others are buying their first home here for a change from bigger-city living. Small-town vibes jive with a growing economy, vibrant entrepreneurial spirit, and cornerstone employers such as St. Francis Regional Medical Center, Amazon, CHS, and Valleyfair.

All the Activities

Scott mixes small-town energy with big-city amenities. Nature lovers can get lost amongst grasslands and hiking trails or reel one in with their kids on Prior Lake. Thrill-seekers know Valleyfair and Canterbury Park will fit the bill. Culture vultures are all about Jordan Supper Club for dinner and hit up Mystic Lake for a top-tier concert or try their hand with Lady Luck. It’s just a matter of finding time to get to it all.

Over the years—especially in the previous decade or so—our communities have grown leaps and bounds and we’re proud of how we come together to celebrate, collaborate, and create a well-loved place to call home. We’ve gathered up a few of our great places, so please, make yourself at home.

Volunteering

The Scott County Volunteer Program is a county resource that can help you connect to opportunities that make our home an even better place to live. Heck, they will even help you find the right people for an event you want to host, too. Learn about this resource and more below.
