    "I been in Winona for about four years now & there are jobs, great food, good people & opportunities in most ways you can think of to get your life on track. It’s a place to go to school, start a family, grow old, retire & even open a small business if possible. Winona also has a very small number of crimes, so little of violence & more then enough police to secure all of this wonderful town"

    "This is one of the nicest neighborhoods in all of Winona. It's so peaceful because of the housing being tucked into the valley behind St. Mary's University. Lots of great theater and music close by. Plenty of wildlife. Park right across the house includes tennis court and beautiful playground area. Great family neighborhood. Good mixture of professionals."
