Dayton homes, and what that means on the day.

Older riverside homes near the historic village, farms and acreage in between, and brand new subdivisions filling in around Highway 81 and Brockton Lane.

Half of Dayton is a finished driveway on a new cul de sac, and the other half is a long farm lane. The new subdivisions often have unpaved side streets and no numbers on the mailboxes yet, so a map pin helps the driver more than the address does.

Parking, permits and buildings

Getting the truck to the door in Dayton.

Dayton prohibits parking on city streets between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. without a permit, and those resident permits are issued for passenger vehicles only, not commercial vehicles, RVs, boats or trailers. After a 2 inch snowfall, parking is prohibited on city streets until the street has been plowed curb to curb, and violators may be towed. The Dayton Police Department says storage containers for moving are not allowed to be parked or left in the street, because Minnesota law prohibits obstructions in the road right of way.

Based on the city's own rules as of September 2026. City rules change, so check with the city before move day.
