There is plenty to do around Richfield. The biggest attraction for visitors and residents alike is the Mall of America, or MOA. The MOA is the largest mall in the country and features Nickelodeon Universe ā€” a full amusement park ā€” in the center, a movie theater, an aquarium, and a huge variety of places to eat and shop.

Both outdoor enthusiasts and history buffs will enjoy visiting nearby Fort Snelling State Park to take in its extensive trails and Historic Fort Snelling.

Richfield started off as an agricultural wonder and was one of the top farmland areas in the state. Since then, it has turned itself into a popular inner-ring suburb that is full of many young professionals settling into their first homes. There are social activities all year, such as Penn Fest or Great Pumpkin Giveaways, but the biggest event of the year is the 4th of July celebration. Everybody comes together at this time to celebrate with good food, good music, and good people.
