Why Live in Central Hillside

Central Hillside in Duluth, MN, is a historic neighborhood located just north of the Minnesota-Wisconsin border, uphill from downtown and the waterfront. Known for its impressive views of Lake Superior, the area has undergone significant revitalization since the early 2000s, with over 300 supportive housing units built or renovated between 2008 and 2011 to assist lower-income families and reduce crime. The Center for Changing Lives, a 27,000-square-foot community center established in 2016, provides job training and life skills to unhoused youths. Local parks like Cascade Park and Hillside Sport Court Park are integral to community life, offering playgrounds, basketball courts, and community gardens that are part of the Duluth Community Garden Program. Mesaba Avenue runs along the west side of the neighborhood, connecting to Rice Lake Road and Central Entrance Drive, while the Duluth Transit Authority provides convenient bus service, including a 10-minute walk or a 5-minute bus ride to downtown. Dining options include Round Up Bar and Grill and Uncle Loui’s Café, with a Whole Foods Co-Op nearby for groceries. Homes in Central Hillside are primarily vinyl-sided bungalows and townhouses, with prices ranging from $138,000 to $715,000, depending on age and renovations. The neighborhood also features a few apartment complexes and income-restricted housing. Students attend Duluth Public Schools, which offer various enrichment programs. Efforts to reduce crime have been ongoing, with the Community Safety Initiative fostering better relationships between law enforcement and residents.
