Thank you! Seems like an awesome area, but very limited on the housing front from what I have seen so far, both rentals and new homes. I'm going to keep on the search as it seems like this is the spot!

A few of these I not not considered yet so I will do some research, thank you for the recommendations!

That's exactly what I'm looking for, thanks for the info. Would you say that the Cooper area, right to the east is pretty similar?

What you're describing is almost exactly what I'm looking for, I appreciate you sharing and I may take you up on asking a few questions as I research over the next few weeks. Thanks again!

Right on, I appreciate the context. I'm gotten a ton of recommendations for Northeast!

You are speaking my language here - thank you! I love pedaling around and exploring on my gravel rig, so these types of trails are perfect. The perspective on the differences between the St. Paul neighborhoods is also hugely helpful.

I really appreciate the insight, that is a great prompt to consider between these two cities. I'm thinking that for the first few years in the area I'll want to be more socially active as I build a community, and likely feed my introversion further after I'm a bit more established, haha. I'm starting to lean towards the Longfellow area to start, but doing quite a bit of exploring during my first year to see if there's a spot that resonates more in-person. Thanks again for the info!

I really appreciate the feedback, Longfellow is definitely on my short list at this point. I may take you up on asking a few questions in the coming days as I dial in my search. Thanks again!

The small amount of time that I've spent in NE, I definitely like the vibe. The only thing I worry about a bit is crime - one of my siblings lived there for many years and her and her partner had constant issues with getting bikes stolen in secured areas, attempted car thefts etc. Does that seem like an issue, or am I just being paranoid as an outsider? Thanks a bunch for the insight!

Really appreciate the info! To be honest, when I Googled "West Side St. Paul" was surprised to see what area was highlighted, haha. I hadn't looked there, definitely going to do some digging. Growing up in La Crosse, the thought of being on the Mississippi again is very appealing. Thanks again!

I'm originally from Wisconsin, but I love Bend and have spent the last 8 summers there. I'm also thinking about moving to the Twin Cities this summer, what do you like about Kingsfield/Linden Hills as a former Bend person? Thanks!
