How can a relatively small community lay claim to this title?
Consider the following:

• A population of 741 (Municipal Census - May 13th, 2008)
• A workforce of over 300
• A yearly sales projection of over fifty million*
• An annual payroll over seven million*
• A highly developed manufacturing base
• Home to agricultural based businesses such as the feed mill, dairy farm, truck & farm equipment supply, construction companies and more!
• A diverse network of businesses meeting the needs of the farming community.

Linden is a beautiful and safe place to raise a family. The friendly community involved Village is home to 741 residents (Municipal Census - May 13th, 2008). The natural coulée that bisects the Village offers a picturesque view and is home to geese, deer, herons and wild flowers.

Linden was incorporated into a Village in 1964 with 264 residents. Now with a population of 741, Linden readily works with the growing community to maintain its vision of meeting the needs of residents and business owners and attracting new, diverse businesses. One of the Village Councils beliefs is that Linden's concerns do not end at our Village boundaries; we cannot survive without the support of the rural residents and they depend on us for our services.
