Located on the southern side of St. Croix County, the village of Baldwin gives a hometown vibe with a wealth of amenities. Located just under 50 miles from the Minneapolis/St. Paul area and 40 miles from Eau Claire, this village is located along Interstate 94, making it attractive for commuters. “It’s a very small and quaint town, with a small town feel that a lot of people are looking for,” says Melissa Wiegele, Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty. “It’s close to the metro areas, but the value of the houses here is great compared to communities near the state border.” She continued to say that Baldwin's small town feel is shown through its tight-knit community, saying it is a place where everyone knows your name.

Though the village is located near the Minnesota-Wisconsin border, real estate prices tend to be lower than communities like Hudson and River Falls, with some homes priced between $225,000 and $250,000. Wiegele also says, “You can find a blend of the traditional type of house on an oversized lot if that’s what you want, but there’s also new construction on your standard quarter-acre lot.” Along wide, sidewalk-lined streets, you can find a blend of established homes built in the 1930s and newly built homes with modern architecture. If you want to build your dream home, there are also plenty of lots available for sale, many of which sit on multiple acres of land.

Parents in Baldwin will enroll their children in schools in the Baldwin-Woodville Area School District, which has plenty of highly rated schools close by. Many students will start out at Greenfield Elementary School, which has an overall B-plus grade on Niche, before moving on to Viking Middle School in neighboring Woodville. Viking Middle also has an overall B-plus grade, and a student-teacher ratio of 16-to-1, according to Niche. Baldwin-Woodville High School has a 9-out-of-10 GreatSchools rating, offering various extracurricular clubs ranging from Future Farmers of America to the National Honor Society and more.

If you want to spend the day outdoors, head to Windmill Park, aptly named due to the picturesque windmill in the center. Parents can take their children here to play in the creek that runs across the park or for a quick afternoon outing after school on the playground. Mill Pond Park is a hub for outdoor sports, with several soccer and softball fields. The park is home to the Baldwin Blast Tournament hosted by the Baldwin Blackhawk Youth Soccer club. The United Civic Center Ice Arena is also on park grounds if you want to catch a hockey game or free skate. But if you’re looking for somewhere to cool off during the summer time you can take a dip in the Baldwin-Woodville pool.

You can find everything from groceries at Nilssen’s Foods to convenience stores and restaurants along U.S. Route 63. Watch your favorite team play during the weekend at Hogg Pen, a local watering hole with a friendly atmosphere and tasty pub grub. There are plenty of fast food options if you want a quick bite to eat, and if you’re looking for a sweet treat afterward, stop by Sweet B’s for a donut or cinnamon roll.

GreatSchools: The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
