Columbus

Columbus lies in the Sunrise River watershed of northern Anoka County, where wetlands, woods and small lakes mark the outer edge of the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area. Unlike the denser suburbs farther south, it remains a low-density community with a rural pattern of homes, roads and open land. Carlos Avery Wildlife Management Area is nearby, preserving extensive habitat for wildlife and providing space for outdoor recreation. Columbus was incorporated as a city in 2006 after its earlier existence as Columbus Township. See how Columbus fits into northern Anoka County by browsing webcams nearby.
