    "Public transportation is within a block or two of everyone’s house. I don’t use it often, so I don’t really know how much time is involved. It takes about 30 minutes to get to the furthest place you could go in Minneapolis/St. Paul from here by car. Suburbs, maybe 45. Most things you need for errand are within 15 minutes."
  • Trulia User
    "Cars drive fast, Main Streets are busy with people and traffic. Neighbors are pretty quiet and pretty."
  • Trulia User
    "This is a heavily traveled thoroughfare. One should practice patience and understanding. overall this is a beautiful blend of old world charm with me world finesse."

  • Michael G.

  • Dezireetoombs
    "I always see neighbors walking there dogs. This neighborhood definitely welcomes dogs. I have not seen any issues with neighbors not picking up after dogs either. "
  • Bxmorin
    "I drive every working day from Highland to Golden Valley. I leave at about 9am and return at about 7:00 pm. At those times it takes about 20 minutes to drive 12 miles on I94, and I-394 or MN-55."
  • David T.
    "I have lived here for +5 years. Quiet neighborhood. No crime. Mix of families with children, empty nesters and retirees. Walk along the Mississippi and see deer, bald eagles, wild turkeys and the occasional coyote."

  • Thosfields

    "I've lived in this neighborhood for three years and love it. Folks are friendly and it's easy to walk most places. Rent is a bit high, but it's a sought after area, so that makes sense. Lots of big trees line the streets and they change beautifully throughout the seasons!"
  • Thosfields
    "Excellent location in the Twin Cities. Great public transit, walk to dozens of shops, etc., 7 minutes drive to MSP airport, good sense of community."
  • Amblin1
    "Pros: Beautiful neighborhood. Upper end housing stock. Multiple parks in the area. Golf course, disc golf, fishing nearby, walking paths, great area for pets, safe and secure. Cons: Very few quality restaurants, bars, or shopping. No retail within 8 blocks. Highland Park is a great neighborhood. It could be the next 50th and France but the vision for upscale shopping and dining just isn't there yet. "
