Edina is a city in Hennepin County, Minnesota, situated southwest of Minneapolis. Edina began as a farming and milling community in the 1860s. Many major highways are close to Edina, making it accessible to those within the metropolitan area. Minnesota State Highways 62 and 100 divide the Edina into four sections. U.S. Route 169 and Minnesota State Highway 100 extend north and south. Interstate 494 and Minnesota State Highway 62 extend east and west. Minnesota State Highway 7 is within three miles of the city. Interstate 394 is within five miles. Within Edina are many different neighborhoods, including Highlands, Indian Hills, Viking Hills, Morningside, Country Club District, Cahill Village, South Harriet Park, Interlachen, Rolling Green, Sunnyslope, White Oaks, Parkwood Knolls, Dewey Hill and Hilldale. Edina began as part of Richfield Township, Minnesota. In the 1850s, 17 families, most of them immigrating as a result of the potato famine in Ireland, came to Minnesota and claimed land in the southwest section of what was then Richfield Township. They were followed by English and Scottish farmers, who claimed additional land near Minnehaha Creek. The Baird and Grimes and Country Club Districts (both which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places), are located in the northeast part of Edina and were among the first areas to be established. Most of Edina is in Independent School District 273, which serves children primarily from Edina. There are six elementary schools, two middle schools, and one senior high school.
