Area Information

One-half of the Twin Cities (the other being St. Paul), Minneapolis offers an intriguing combination of natural beauty and a vibrant urban environment. The largest city in Minnesota, Minneapolis is situated on both banks of the Mississippi River. It boasts 20 lakes and wetlands, as well as 200 miles of hiking, biking and cross-country skiing trails within city limits.

When you rent an apartment in Minneapolis, you can enjoy the Grand Rounds Scenic Byway, which connects seven city districts through linked park areas and about 50 miles of roadways.

South of Downtown, Uptown attracts renters seeking a vibrant lifestyle. This urban neighborhood offers one-of-a-kind shopping, diverse dining and music venues. Uptown is also just steps from the Chain of Lakes Regional Park, which includes Lake Calhoun, a popular site for windsurfing, swimming, sailing and canoeing.

In addition to its historic districts, Minneapolis also offers renters stunning modern architecture. The Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum, which features collections from 20th-century American artists, including Georgia O'Keefe, is housed in a striking stainless-steel building designed by renowned architect Frank Gehry. In the historic Mill District, the Jean Nouvel-designed Guthrie Theater is a bold blue structure that houses three theaters and 11 bars.

The city's light rail system eases the burden for commuters and connects those renting an apartment in Minneapolis to the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, the University of Minnesota, and the Mall of America, which is 10 miles south in Bloomington.
