Boasting one of the best public school systems in the state and a high quality of life, Delano exemplifies the spirit of community of small-town Minnesota. The films A Simple Plan and Grumpy Old Men were filmed in Delano, and the local hockey team was believed to have been the inspiration for The Mighty Ducks.
