Olmsted County, Minnesota
You might not have heard of Olmsted County, but chances are you know its biggest claim to fame: the Mayo Clinic. This southeastern Minnesota county is where world-class medicine meets small town.
It’s not just about the Mayo Clinic, though that’s a big deal. Outside the city limits, rolling hills and fertile fields stretch far and wide.
The Zumbro River cuts through the county. There’s a sense of pride in Olmsted County. It’s a mix of lab coats and farmland here.
