My kid is in the Spanish immersion program at MW. He’s had an excellent experience! I feel fortunate that we are able to receive such amazing programming at a public school. I volunteer at MW fairly frequently- the school does have a significant number of students that are low income (I volunteer delivering food bags); the staff/teachers here are quite amazing and I can tell they really care about their students.

"We’ve lived in the neighborhood 10 years- it’s close to everything. Before having kids we would regularly walk to downtown and canal park. It’s also close to hiking and biking trails. "

"Depending on the time of day, be careful cause sometimes you have some “interesting” people out and about. The sidewalks are also not kept up very well, especially in the wintertime. Otherwise it is a half ways decent area to walk your dog, from my experience that is. "

"Million dollar views with middle class affordability. Hidden gem of Duluth. Watch 4th of July fireworks from a deck, children biking in the street, and parents walking strollers to Enger Park. It's like "Cheers" except everybody knows the name of their neighbor's dog! "
