Corcoran is just a short car, bus, bike or train ride from downtown Minneapolis.
Corcoran has a mix of home styles.

The community supports businesses and one another
Francesco Marraffa, a broker with Kilt Real Estate LLC, says people can walk to the area’s small businesses, including Blue Tree Music Education, which he says is “my kids’ favorite music center.” It also has a children's choir, the Blue Tree Songbirds, which performs for the community. Other events are hosted by the Corcoran Neighborhood Organization, which shares food and health resources, as well as news that residents need to know.
Students are zoned for the Minneapolis Public School District
Students are served by the highly rated Minneapolis Public School District, including the neighborhood’s South High School, which also gets high marks. The state’s open-enrollment policy lets students attend any school outside of the district that is not full. Nearby private schools like Hope Academy Minneapolis are another option, as are magnet schools like Sullivan STEAM School, which uses an enrollment lottery.
Green Central Elementary School serves the community.

Try the Jucy Lucy at Matt's Bar
Waiting outside Matt’s Bar is a Minneapolis tradition. The hole-in-the-wall burger joint is just across Cedar Avenue, and every day, people stand in line for a taste of its signature Jucy Lucy burger, which is stuffed with melted cheese. “It’s an experience,” Marraffa says. “You can’t order online. You have to be there.” The cash-only restaurant opened in 1954 and has been featured on TV shows like “Man vs. Food.”
Pick up produce from the Midtown Farmers Market
The community has few shops and restaurants, and a standout spot is the Midtown Farmers Market, which is held on Saturdays from May through October. The market has served the area since 2003, offering fresh produce, spices and baked goods among other foods. A band or DJ often plays music while people shop.
