    That will be GREAT Sapna, thank you so much!

    I looked up apartments in Eden Prairie online and found that most of them have electric gas ranges. Is that the case ? Do you know ?

    Uh oh! Electric ranges suck!!!
    Nevertheless, if you can send me names of some apartments that are good and have Indian communities around, that will be very helpful.
    Thanks Sapna!

    Eden Place apartments. (I like these :) )
    Eden Commons (We live in these)

    The above 2 apartments hav less indians compare to the following 2.

    Fountain Place apartments(They say 80% Indians)
    Broadmore apartments(Same lot of Indians.)

    broadmore apartments to me looks more like a hotel, they dont have patio or balcony. These 4 apartments that are well known here and i have frnds living in there.

    There is one more Eden Lake, but I dont know much about that...

    Hope this helps a little :) Welcome to MN.

    Thanks Sapna, this is so very helpful. Appreciate it very much.
    we are planning to visit the shortlisted apartments sometime in April. I hope things go fine; moving and apartment looking is such a pain!
