## Verdict
The honest best-value pick: same elite Wayzata pipeline as the $1M+ zip codes, at a price that fits your $240K HHI without breaking it. Why this fits you specifically: you grew up in MN suburbs and want the same for your kids — Plymouth in 2026 IS that suburb, with a stronger school endpoint than where you grew up and modern construction that won't bleed you on maintenance over a 9-year hold.

Pros: #1 school district in MN, three years running — best academic floor of any zone; Best price-per-sqft in any top-tier west-metro zone: $700K buys 3,000–3,800 sqft; Same Wayzata HS endpoint as $1M+ Wayzata proper, at half the price.
Cons: Less walkable than Edina or Linden Hills — most pockets are car-first; you walk to the cul-de-sac, drive to the coffee shop; Wayzata HS is huge (3,700+) — kids who need a smaller environment may struggle; Some 55441 pockets are not in Wayzata district (some feed Robbinsdale ISD 281) — verify the address-level boundary before any offer.
