City in Minnesota, United States

Brooklyn Park is a suburban city on the west bank of the Mississippi River, upstream from (north of) downtown Minneapolis in northern Hennepin County. It is the sixth largest city in the U. S. state of Minnesota. The population was 86,478 at the 2020 census. The city still has undeveloped land and farms, including the historic Eidem Homestead, a 1900s working farm that is a popular tourist attraction for families and school field trips. Brooklyn Park is considered both a second and third tier suburb of Minneapolis, because much of the land north of 85th Avenue was developed after 2000.

He was elected governor of Minnesota in the 1998 election on a third party ticket and served as governor from 1999 to 2003.
