About Luverne

Located in southwestern Minnesota along the Rock River, Luverne offers a classic small-town feel with around 5,000 residents. Sitting right off Interstate 90, the town gives locals a quiet home base just a 30-minute drive from the shopping, dining, and healthcare in Sioux Falls. As the county seat of Rock County, it combines historic prairie charm with easy highway access to the rest of the region.

Just north of town, a paved trail leads straight into Blue Mounds State Park, known for its pink quartzite cliffs and resident bison herd. It is a welcoming, comfortable community where everyday life moves at a relaxed pace.
