    "People of all ages live here. Also wealthy people and low income people live here. I would love to see it more diverse though"
  • Lisa Sturm
    "Lots of dog walking in Duluth. There are also dog parks. Trails to walk on, lakes to swim in. My neighborhood nearly every house has a dog."
  • Stacy M.
    "Access to public transportation if needed, feels a lot more like a neighborhood and not part of the larger city. Plenty of access to the lake, hiking and biking trails, parks. Excellent place to live regardless of what stage of life you are in. "
  • dghergich
    "The sidewalks are well maintained and you will see people out walking dogs most times of the day. It is a friendly neighborhood where most people clean up after their pets and don’t leave messes. "
  • Trulia User
    "The Halloween trick or treating experience was picture perfect for our little ones. So many houses were decked out and giving out treats. It was also a very safe and walkable neighborhood to be out in the dark."
  • Trulia User

  • Snetwal23

  • Sarahrochel
    "There are lots of other kids here, and it’s a friendly neighborhood! Plus having Lester park nearby is awesome, and it’s very walkable. Safe roads and sidewalks. "
  • Sarahrochel
    "There are lots of other dogs here! I don’t know anyone on my street who doesn’t have at least one dog. "
  • Jroselipka
    "Lake walk is close by and city buses stop across the road many times a day so you wouldn’t necessarily need a car for transportation. Grocery store 1 mile away from my home and 3 gas stations, Coffee shop, post office, couple restaurants, snap fitness, parks, doctors office, chiropractor and dentist all within a mile but mostly within a couple blocks! Very convenient place to live!"
  • Sue W. A.

  • Belangerpope
