About Student Housing in St Paul
St Paul is Minnesota's state capital and the quieter, more historically rooted partner to Minneapolis, with a population of roughly 300,000. The city is known for Victorian architecture, diverse immigrant communities, and neighborhoods with distinct identities - from the Summit Ave corridor to the working-class density of Frogtown and Hamline-Midway. Students near Concordia University Saint Paul find a walkable, transit-connected area with affordable rents and direct Green Line light rail access to Minneapolis. The broader metro offers a strong job market, arts institutions, and outdoor recreation along the Mississippi River. Winters are genuine, but the city takes them in stride.
