    Friendly neighbors, Quiet Streets and parks galore. You will feel right at home on the winding streets, almost all of with ending in a small flower patch or wetland filled with wildlife. Its not unlikely to pass the same friendly faces on your evening walk, or repeat small talk with neighbors reclining on sunlit porches.

    Living here has been all right. Nothing too exciting. There is a mall nearby. There are lots of police cars which worries me but otherwise than that, the neighborhood is not bad
    The area is very safe and quiet. I'm close to down town as well as Saint paul ,very accessible. There is a natural history museum near by and very close to Rosedale shopping center.
