In the north end of the Minneapolis' Phillips district lies Ventura Village, a small neighborhood tucked between Interstate 35 and Hiawatha Avenue. Potential residents have a wide selection of apartments and houses to rent, and the commute to downtown Minneapolis, only 1.5 miles north, typically takes less than 10 minutes.
Ventura Village's businesses and community organizations reflect the area's rich history celebrating the area's Native American culture. For a taste of classic American comfort food, locals head to Maria's Cafe, which serves breakfast and lunch. Northland Visions offers a place for local artists and crafters to sell their wares, and several festivals throughout the year celebrate the local Native culture and other Minnesota traditions.
