City - West Saint Paul

West Saint Paul earned its name not from geography but from history — it once sat across the river from Saint Paul on the west bank of the Mississippi, and the name stuck. Tucked into Dakota County, this compact city covers just six square miles yet packs in a surprising amount of green space, from Garlough Park and Marthaler Park to the sprawling Thompson County Park. The Dodge Nature Center draws outdoor enthusiasts year-round, while Lilydale/Harriet Island Regional Park sits just minutes away along the riverfront.

South Robert Street anchors daily life with grocery stores, shops, and dining, and downtown Saint Paul is practically a neighbor, making it easy to tap into the bigger city's museums, arts scene, and entertainment.

The rental market here offers solid variety, with traditional apartment communities, townhomes, and garden-style buildings spread throughout walkable stretches of the city.
