Monticello: Nuclear Plant Town on the Upper Mississippi
Monticello straddles the Mississippi River in Wright County, about 45 miles northwest of Minneapolis. The Xcel Energy nuclear power plant, visible from Interstate 94, has been a significant presence since 1971. The plant generates electricity for much of the region and is the city's largest taxpayer.
The city grew from about 3,500 in 1990 to over 13,000 as the Twin Cities commuter belt expanded. New residential developments on the north side of the river have transformed formerly agricultural land. The Bertram Chain of Lakes Regional Park provides fishing and boating access.
Monticello's downtown along River Street and Broadway retains a small-town commercial district. The Ellison Park and the Mississippi riverfront offer walking trails and green space. The city's economy balances the nuclear plant, retail services, and commuter-based employment.
The Monticello Community Center provides swimming, fitness equipment, and meeting rooms. The city's location on I-94 gives it convenient access to both the Twin Cities and Saint Cloud.
