About Minneapolis, MN Real Estate


Minnesota’s sparkling City of Lakes

As Minnesota’s largest city, Minneapolis is a thriving and bustling city with upscale urban amenities, numerous lakes, and a progressive and welcoming atmosphere. It's one half of the Twin Cities, along with neighboring St. Paul. Together, the two cities form the core of the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area, which is home to over 3.7 million people.
 
The city has a strong tradition of progressive politics and social activism, dating back to the 1960s and 70s. Minneapolis was one of the first cities to adopt a $15 minimum wage and has been at the forefront of police reform efforts. The city is also known for its bike-friendly infrastructure, with over 120 miles of on-street bikeways and 90 miles of off-street bike paths. 
 
Downtown Minneapolis is a dense tableau of historic concrete and brick properties surrounded by glittering glass towers and high-rise luxury apartments and condominiums. Throughout Minneapolis’ urban sprawl, residents and visitors are faced with incredible sculptures, modern architecture, bubbling fountains, ample open spaces, parks, iconic museums, and a vibrant shopping and dining district. All of this is easily accessible on foot, as well as via public transportation like buses and the light rail, which connects Minneapolis to downtown St. Paul and the Minnesota-Saint Paul International Airport.
