City - Northfield

Northfield, Minnesota, sits along the Cannon River about 40 miles south of Minneapolis and St. Paul, a well-connected small city with a character all its own. It's best known as home to two respected private liberal arts colleges, Carleton College and St. Olaf College, which have long shaped the city's culture, community, and energy. If you're searching for apartments for rent in Northfield, you'll find a community defined by its college-town roots, a walkable historic downtown, and a rich agricultural history dating back to Minnesota's early settlement days. Renters have plenty of housing options to explore, from garden-style apartment communities and walk-up buildings to rental homes close to the campuses and downtown core. Speaking of downtown, it lines the Cannon River with local restaurants, boutique shops, and specialty businesses worth getting to know. Outdoor recreation is easy to come by too.
