About Springfield

Set along the Cottonwood River on Highway 14, Springfield is a quiet agricultural town in southwestern Minnesota where neighbors know each other and life moves at a manageable pace. Originally founded as a railroad stop in the late 1800s, the community blends its working heritage with well-kept parks, tree-lined residential streets, and scenic prairie surroundings. It is the kind of welcoming Brown County town where you will find affordable homes, strong local pride, and plenty of open space to spread out.
