Neighborhood

Bungalows and cottages sit side by side with older Victorians and neat brick apartment buildings in the neighborhood of Hamline-Midway, centrally located just a couple of miles west of downtown Saint Paul. Residents love how easily they can get around town, thanks to I-94 running at the south side of the neighborhood, the bicycle- and pedestrian-friendly streets, and the wealth of public transportation, including multiple bus lines and the Central Corridor Light Rail Line.

Hamline University sits in the neighborhood, and half a dozen local parks help make Hamline-Midway family-friendly. The Hamline Midway Coalition brings neighbors together to hold garage sales, sponsor spring and fall festivals at local elementary schools, and plan neighborhood-wide events, such as Grounds and Sounds, which brings out local musicians to showcase their talents.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. 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.
