St. Louis Park is a city in Hennepin County, Minnesota, United States. The population was 50,010 at the 2020 census.[2] It is a first-ring suburb immediately west of Minneapolis. Other adjacent cities include Edina, Golden Valley, Minnetonka, Plymouth, and Hopkins.
The Pavek Museum of Broadcasting, which has a major collection of antique radio and television equipment, is also in the city. Items range from radios produced by local manufacturers to the Vitaphone system used to cut discs carrying audio for the first "talkie", The Jazz Singer.
Filmmakers Joel and Ethan Coen, who grew up in St. Louis Park, set their 2009 film A Serious Man in the city c. 1967. It was important to the Coens to find a neighborhood of original-looking suburban rambler homes as they would have appeared in St. Louis Park in the mid-1960s, and after careful scouting they opted to film scenes in a neighborhood of nearby Bloomington,[5][6] as well as at St. Louis Park's B'nai Emet Synagogue, which was later sold and converted into a school.
