About Us
Burnsville lies on a bluff overlooking the south bank of the Minnesota River upstream from its confluence with the Mississippi River. Established in 1858 and incorporated in 1964, Burnsville is now the ninth largest suburb in the metro area with easy access to Minneapolis and Saint Paul.
Burnsville is home to a section of Murphy-Hanrehan Park Reserve, Buck Hill, part of the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge and the Ames Center (performing arts center). In addition, Burnsville’s downtown area is called Heart of the City with urban-style retail and condominiums. Plus, Burnsville Transit Station serves as the hub and headquarters of the Minnesota Valley Transit Authority.
Burnsville is a community where visitors feel safe, welcome to be themselves and find a place they want to return to again and again.
