    "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."

  • Michael G.

    "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."

    "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. "
