Who are we as a neighborhood?

This area of Saint Paul has gone through dramatic demographic changes in the past 15-20 years. People and agencies are still thinking we are who we were back then. We are much more now. We are a vibrant, dynamic, and beautifully diverse community.

The Wilder Foundation's Research department has worked over many years with a variety of partners to develop NEIGHBORHOOD PROFILES for communities across Minnesota. Here in the Twin Cities, they have developed these profiles so there can be direct comparisons of communities.

If you want to understand who we are currently, here is a link to the freshly updated demographic data. Click on the map for our area (the southeast corner of Saint Paul - the yellow colored area). This gives you a very interesting perspective on who we are.
