Edina began as a small farming and milling community in the 1860s comprised mostly of Scottish immigrants. The city's name was adopted from the local mill, "Edina Mill" so-named to honor the owner's native town of Edinborough, Scotland. Both the Scottish heritage and the farming/milling framework of the community remain prevalent in the names of buildings, parks and streets within the community, but the humility of that era has long been erased from this city's makeup.

Edina is a first-ring suburb of Minneapolis, situated just southwest of the city. The neighborhoods are considered upscale by area standards, with more attention focused on architectural and landscaping splendor than many homes in neighboring first-ring suburbs whose features tend more towards the functional. Homes range from the single-story rambler to modern luxury town home to Tudor Revivals and Modern and Contemporary mansions in some of the most posh developments. Neighborhoods are safe and well-maintained with wide roads and plenty of living space. Retail centers of the city are equally impressive, Edina being home to the first enclosed mall in the country: Southdale Mall, which recently underwent a major upgrade and rejuvenation, as well as the adjacent Galleria ("Shoppes of Distinction"), and the more off-beat and trendy 50th and France district.

Edina is close to everywhere of consequence: Downtown Minneapolis, Uptown, the Mall of America and the Minneapolis International Airport are all a quick 10 to 15-minute drive.
