    With the meandering Mississippi River to the east, the apartments for rent in Minneapolis are located in southeastern Minnesota, directly west of St. Paul. Minneapolis is famous for theater and music scenes, as evidenced by the Minneapolis Institute of Art and the Walker Performing Art Center. The city is also a canvas of creativity with captivating street murals adorning the apartments for rent. Whether it's rock and roll at 7th Street Entry, soulful jazz at the Dakota, cheering on stadium teams (like the Vikings, Twins and Timberwolves), or taking the family to the Science Museum and Children's Theater, renters always have an amazing experience. Furthermore, renting in Minneapolis is a foodie's dream with dishes ranging from French-Vietnamese fusion to Ethiopian and Mediterranean delights. At the same time, education is prioritized with the Minneapolis Public School District overseeing around 100 schools.

    Beyond the vibrant cultural tapestry, the city's outdoor life shines with its numerous lakes and parks, where kayaking, biking, and seasonal festivities are regular pastimes.

    Renting in Minneapolis, MN

    North Minneapolis is where most of the new renters want to be. Specifically, places like North Loop - also known as "The Warehouse District" - have apartments for rent on the northwestern edges of downtown that are renovated warehouses from the 19th and early 20th centuries. Renters in North Loop are also close to Minnesota Twins games at Target Field, as well as the Minnesota Timberwolves and Lynx teams, too. Meanwhile, student renters looking to stay close to school should look for apartment rentals on West Bank and Cedar-Riverside. Additionally, most neighborhoods have what's known locally as "Minneapolis Fourplex" buildings, which are four-unit apartment buildings from the 20th century with brick exteriors and symmetrical designs. There's also a lot of mid-century modern architecture here, like the Riverside Plaza complex, which has sleek lines and large windows that were designed by architect Ralph Rapson in the 1970s.

    Things for renting

    Shopping in Minneapolis, MN

    Minneapolis is a mid-sized city that successfully blends bigger brands with small historic shops. The most popular shopping mall in Minneapolis (and possibly in the world) is The Mall of America, which renters will find 15 minutes outside of the downtown area. Here, renters have more than 500 stores to choose from, as well as Nickelodeon Universe (an amusement park), an aquarium, a comedy club, nightlife and casino gaming. Otherwise, Nicollet (also known as Nicollet Mall) is a mile-long shopping stretch with convenient skywalk systems connecting renters with stores such as Target, Hubert White, Nordstrom Rack, Uniquely Global and Walgreens. The North Loop and Warehouse District are also bustling areas featuring a wide array of local shops and designer boutiques, like D. NOLO, PARC, Statement Boutique, Requisite and Madewell. And, in the uptown area, renters can shop for women's designer clothing at Covered, European-style fashions at Combine, casual attire at Cal Surf and an eclectic selection of items at Leisure World Vintage.

    Transportation in Minneapolis, MN

    A car is not necessary when renting in Minneapolis as Metro Transit operates more than 90 bus routes throughout the mid-sized city. In particular, Hennepin Avenue is a main road served by two main bus routes (4 and 61), which take renters directly from downtown. Another route, #11, takes renters around 13th and University avenues, where renters will find a restaurant and nightlife scene, and then continues further north to Betty Danger's Country Club. Two other important routes are routes 7 and 14, which take renters into the North Loop to see games at Target Field. Alternatively, to reach the West Bank and Cedar-Riverside area - which is where University of Minnesota and Augsburg College renters enjoy theater, music and art - simply take the Metro Transit Light Rail Blue or Green lines or bus routes 3, 7 or 22. Finally, the nearest airport to Minneapolis renters is Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.
