I am looking for a few acres to raise my family. I can't seem to find acreage. I have 3 kids, so I would like a house with 4 to 5 bedrooms. I can't seem to find much that fits this in the area.

ARe there any jobs in Bricelyn, or very close, that pay enough to make a living on one income?

Well, the cost of living is low, but the high-paying job market isn't that great. It's a small town. I guess it depends how many you need to support, what your qualifications are, and how you want to live.

In Bricelyn, I would say no.

Wells (my town) has 3 banks, a couple of lawyers, Wells Concrete Products (largest industry in town)etc. It would still be tough to live on a single income. Some do it though.

The cities of Albert Lea and Blue Earth are larger, though still quite small if you're from St. Paul.

Perhaps these addresses will help:

That's interesting. I had to live in a major city for a while before I appreciated Wells and came back. Now is the best time of the year in Southern MN, autumn, hunting season.
