Where to Stay When Visiting UnitedHealth Group (Minnetonka)
UnitedHealth Group's headquarters is in Minnetonka. Downtown and the airport ride the METRO light rail; the suburbs need a car. Which one your campus is in decides the trip.
UnitedHealth Group is the largest U.S. health-insurance and healthcare-services company (parent of Optum), headquartered at 9900 Bren Rd E, Minnetonka, MN 55343. That's the western suburbs — Minnetonka, Golden Valley, and Eden Prairie along I-394 and Highway 62, home to UnitedHealth Group, General Mills, Cargill, and C.H. Robinson, a spread-out corporate belt west of the city.
“UnitedHealth — the biggest name in US healthcare — is in Minnetonka. Stay in the western suburbs near the campus and keep a car; there's no train out here.”— Rachel Julian, Founder & Editor-in-Chief
Which airport — and how far?
Minneapolis-St. Paul International (MSP) is about 25–30 minutes from the western suburbs. There's one airport, but the light rail doesn't reach these office parks, so you'll want a car out here.
