Nestled between Interstate 94 and the Mississippi River, Saint Paul’s Arts District is exactly what you’d imagine: a lively, artistic, and culturally-focused community that’s filled with entertainment options. The Arts District is home to Palace Theatre and the Ordway Center for the Performing Arts. This family-friendly downtown district features the Minnesota Children’s Museum, filled with kid-friendly fun.

There’s plenty of fun to be had along the river as well. From Kellogg Mall Park to the Mississippi National River Recreation Area, locals and visitors alike can enjoy 72 waterfront miles of hiking, biking, and fishing opportunities. And if you’re interested in getting on the water, you canoe and riverboat trips are available as well. There is plenty of public transit in the Arts District as well, and the renovated historic station, Union Depot, is a scenic spot to visit while you’re strolling through the neighborhood.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
