Little Six Casino 6n2c5f

About twenty miles southwest of downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota is a suburb called Prior Lake. Little Six Casino, in Prior Lake, is owned and operated by the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community. Minnesota has a large Native American population, and since portions of the Shakopee Sioux tribal land turn out to be located within the city limits of Prior Lake, the Shakopee Sioux are also considered residents of the city. 414z

This turned out to be a major boon for Prior Lake. The city used to be a tiny out-of-the-way suburb. After a nearby highway was built, Prior Lake became a bedroom community for junior executives working in the Twin Cities. The median income for families in Prior Lake is nearly $100,000 a year, more than double the average for Minnesota citizens. The increased income from the casino has only bolstered what was already a booming little economy. Without the highway, no housing market, no casino, no Prior Lake.
