Elgin, Minnesota

As of the 200 census, Elgin, Minnesota had a little under 900 citizens, which could make it the smallest Elgin in the United States.  To put that into perspective, there are more students registered at Elgin High School than that.   

Elgin, Minnesota is a  small town in Wabash County, 13 miles northeast of Rochester and  61 miles from Saint Paul, Minnesota.  Like most other towns, Elgin, Minnesota was born after the railroad made a stop there in 1878.
