Bars around Coon Rapids carry a median of 1,162.5 Google reviews per business across the 20 we read, with three listings holding 4,084, 3,803 and 3,393. The two businesses answering the most of their recent reviews in that group are Ole Piper Inn, which holds 3,803 reviews and answered 1 of its last 10, and Route 47 Pub & Grub, at 1,873 reviews and 1 of its last 10.
Cafes go further. None of the 20 we read had answered any of their recent reviews, in a trade with a median of 288.5 reviews per business and a most-reviewed listing at 2,789. Gyms are the other trade where that is true: none of the 20 we read had answered any of their recent reviews, at a median of 107 and top listings of 713, 663 and 480.
Among the 20 veterinarians we read, Andover Animal Hospital answered 10 of its last 10 and holds 824 reviews, and Elm Creek Animal Hospital answered 10 of its last 10 with 607. In pet boarding, Stone Mountain Pet Lodge - Blaine Radisson answered 10 of its last 10 at 499 reviews. The divide runs inside a single group as well: in coffee shops, Compassion Coffee answered 9 of its last 10 at 328 reviews, while in cafes nobody we read had answered anything recent at all.
Coon Rapids has a population of 63,348 and a median household income of $86,618, and we read 480 businesses across the trades on this page. Across the 54 businesses we measured in the set someone searching here is shown, a typical one answered 77% of its recent reviews. Median ratings land close together in places, 4.85 for barbershops and 4.85 for hair salons against 4.4 for bars, but a trade median is one figure for a whole set and it does not tell you which listing is which.
What to do about it
The reply counts on this page are drawn from each business's most recent reviews. The review counts beside them are the whole listing. That distinction is the useful one if you are in a trade with deep files, because a listing holding four figures of reviews is not being asked to write back under all of it. Open the newest handful, answer those, and keep going from there.
Answer the straightforwardly good ones too, not only the ones that need smoothing over, and write each reply in your own words rather than pasting the same two sentences down the page. Catching up once and keeping up are different jobs, and the recent-reviews figure only ever measures the second one. Where a trade's median rating sits at 4.85 or 4.9, that one number says nothing about which listing is which, so the written replies underneath are the part of the page you actually control.

Spa & aesthetics in Coon Rapids, MN
Med spas, IV therapy and weight-loss clinics each show a median rating of 5 across the 20 we read in each trade. A median is one figure for a whole set and does not tell you which listing is which. What does vary is how much is written under them: the median review count is 42.5 for med spas, 33 for IV therapy and 25 for weight-loss clinics, against 116.5 for massage and 72.5 for day spas.
The reply counts, which are drawn from each business's most recent reviews rather than the whole listing, come from named businesses one at a time. TC Medspa & Laser answered 10 of its last 10 and carries 263 reviews. Beautox Bar Medspa answered 9 of its last 10 with 458. In IV therapy, Allina Health Urgent Care - Coon Rapids answered 10 of its last 10 with 450 reviews, and Minnesota IV Hydration and Wellness LLC answered 10 of its last 10 with 274. On the walk-in side of the same group, Fiona's Day Spa answered 10 of its last 10 with 185 reviews and Essentially Massage answered 5 of its last 10 with 126. Fiona's appears again among the massage listings, as does ElysiuMassage - Coon Rapids at 10 of its last 10 with 183 reviews.

Fitness & wellness in Coon Rapids, MN
None of the 20 gyms we read had answered any of their recent reviews. Not one. And these are not thin listings: the three most-reviewed gyms in the set someone searching around Coon Rapids is shown hold 713, 663 and 480 Google reviews, with a median of 107 across the twenty we read. A lot of people wrote something, and in the recent reviews we checked, none of the twenty had written anything back.
The chiropractors are the other trade in this group, also twenty of them read. There the businesses answering the most of their recent reviews are Essentials of Life Chiropractic, at 10 of its last 10, against a listing holding 410 reviews; Blaine Family Chiropractic, also 10 of 10, with 305; and Health and Healing Family Chiropractic, at 9 of 10, with 296. Those are the three answering the most, so they say nothing about the rest of the twenty we read. What they do show is that a full reply count is achievable alongside a review file in the hundreds.
| Trade | Median reviews | Median rating | Answers reviews best | Answered |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gyms | 107 | 4.5 | — | |
| Chiropractors | 143.5 | 4.9 | Essentials of Life Chiropractic | 10 of 10 |
Dental & orthodontics in Coon Rapids, MN
Three dentist listings in the set someone searching around Coon Rapids is shown carry 761, 619 and 527 Google reviews. The median across the 20 dentists we read is 294. Central Avenue Dental Care, the business answering the most, replied to 10 of its last 10 reviews, on a listing holding 488. Blaine Dentistry answered 8 of its last 10, with 464 reviews.
Orthodontics sits lower on review count and higher on median rating: 176 reviews at the median across the 20 we read, and a median rating of 4.9 against 4.7 for the dentists. Three orthodontics businesses answered 9 of their last 10 - Blaine Kidds Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, with 695 reviews, Milestone Orthodontics with 392, and Osage Dental Associates PA with 294. A median rating is one figure for a whole set; it does not tell you which listing is which, and nothing on this page is ordered by stars.
| Trade | Median reviews | Median rating | Answers reviews best | Answered |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dentists | 294 | 4.7 | Central Avenue Dental Care | 10 of 10 |
| Orthodontists | 176 | 4.9 | Blaine Kidds Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics | 9 of 10 |
Pets in Coon Rapids, MN
Every business we can name across these three trades answered all 10 of its last 10 reviews. Andover Animal Hospital did it on a listing carrying 824 Google reviews, Stone Mountain Pet Lodge - Blaine Radisson on 499, and Scenthound Coon Rapids on 334. Nine businesses, the same figure under each of them. What that does not tell you is how the rest of the twenty we read in each trade behave, because we are shown only the three answering the most, so the names here are the top of each trade and not a description of it.
The review files underneath are not the same size. The veterinary practices we read carry a median of 395 Google reviews, and the three most-reviewed hold 824, 703 and 607. Pet boarding sits at a median of 115, with its three biggest at 499, 464 and 405. Grooming's median is 92.5, and its three most-reviewed listings hold 639, 334 and 271. A median is the middle of the twenty we read in that trade; it is not a description of the three at the top, and the two sets of numbers answer different questions.
| Trade | Median reviews | Median rating | Answers reviews best | Answered |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pet grooming | 92.5 | 4.75 | Scenthound Coon Rapids | 10 of 10 |
| Pet boarding | 115 | 4.7 | Stone Mountain Pet Lodge - Blaine Radisson | 10 of 10 |

Shops & studios in Coon Rapids, MN
The three most-reviewed tattoo listings someone searching around Coon Rapids is shown carry 703, 638 and 525 Google reviews. The median across the 20 tattoo studios we read is 144. Those are whole-listing counts, everything sitting on the profile; the reply figures below come from a much shorter window, each business's most recent reviews.
Mafia Ink Tattoo Studio, whose listing holds 363 reviews, answered 8 of its last 10. Creative Images holds 375 reviews and answered 2 of its last 10. Captive Elements holds 638 and answered 1 of its last 10. Those three are the businesses answering the most of their recent reviews among the 20 we read, and that is also the edge of what we can say — the rest of the twenty we read are not described by that list in either direction.

Method
Every figure comes from public Google listings — the businesses and owner replies any customer can see — read on 2026-09-24. Counts describe the businesses someone searching in Coon Rapids, MN is shown, which is the competitive set a customer actually chooses from, not a register of businesses inside the city limits. A business is named only where we read at least eight of its recent reviews, and only the ones answering the most are named; the rest of a market appears as a distribution with its denominator. Chains are counted but never named. Nothing is ranked on star rating. Coon Rapids, MN has a population of 63,348 and a median household income of $86,618 (US Census) — context for the town, not a predictor of its reviews.
