ABOUT CAMBRIDGE, MN
Cambridge sits along Highway 65, about 45 miles north of Minneapolis in Isanti County. The city of roughly 9,000 serves as the county seat and regional commercial hub. The Rum River runs right through town, giving Cambridge both character and a working recreational amenity. Cambridge Medical Center (Allina) is the region's largest employer and has helped stabilize the local economy through multiple cycles.
