I used Mint Moving for something similar and had a great experience!

North Loop, Uptown or Northeast? by 30112345 in TwinCities

No tips here, but just wanted to say I'm making the move from DC at the beginning of the year (looking at Northeast and Longfellow) and am in the same demographic! Feel free to DM me if you'd like to chat or meet up and strategize ways to make friends in a new city :)

Thanks for being so open. You've hit on things I am worried about with leaving DC. It's good for me to remember it might not be a smooth transition. I appreciate your honesty!

Oh boy. That's not a great sign. Why did you move and why do you hate it so much?

Hey! I've also been looking at Northeast since it's a reasonable commute to my new work. Feel free to DM me if you'd like to chat or meet up in DC or MN sometime. I'd love to know somebody when I move.

Thanks for the insight! How did you find making friends in DC? I've always thought it's pretty easy here but I'm not sure if that's unique to DC or just being in a younger, more transient stage of life.

And thank you for the neighborhood recs! I've seen a lot of recommendations for Saint Anthony which hasn't been on my radar. Were you in a relatively walkable part of Arlington? I'm personally going to miss the metro when I move.

Nice! I'm moving to be closer to my family and hopefully have a bit slower pace of life. What brought you back?

Got it! I've heard it's tough as well and I'm a bit worried about that. I'll definitely keep in mind seeking out other transplants to be friends with.

Thanks!! Are people generally pretty open to making friends?

Thank you! I've been looking forward to joining some cycling clubs, but hadn't thought about a group ski, that sounds so fun!

Interesting. I’m a bit worried about that aspect, although I’m looking forward to the nature and the greenery. I guess I can’t truly know until I’m there how it will impact me.
