Jordan is a quiet community in the Near North region of Minneapolis. The area is mostly residential, with several parks and restaurants within a few miles, and students are zoned for a highly rated district. Downtown Minneapolis is a short drive or bus ride away.
Craftsman-style homes, bungalows and American Foursquares are spread throughout the area, along with a few Tudor-style houses. “On average, [the homes] were built from 1900 to the 1940s,” says Trevor Howat, a Realtor with the Chad Schwendeman Group at EXP Realty. Prices often range from around $70,000 to the upper $300,000s. Duplexes and townhomes can run from the mid-$100,000s to the upper $300,000s. The community is almost evenly split between homeowners and renters, who typically live in apartments and bungalows. The neighborhood tends to be more expensive than nearby Folwell, but less expensive than Cleveland and Willard-Hay.
Jordan is one of six neighborhoods that make up the larger Near North region of Minneapolis. The community has wide streets, and cars are often parked along the curb. Sidewalks are well-kept and often shaded by trees, making it easy for people to get around the neighborhood. The Jordan Area Community Council was created in 1964 and provides residents with information on financial and health services. It also hosts community clean-ups and block parties, among other events. The area is home to the historic Capri Theater, which opened in 1927 and hosts movie screenings, concerts and live performances. It’s where Prince made his solo debut in 1979.
Students are served by the highly rated Minneapolis Public School District. The state has open enrollment, meaning students can attend any school outside of the district that has room. Other nearby options include private schools like Ascension Elementary School and citywide magnet schools like Franklin STEAM Middle School, which uses an enrollment lottery.
The community is around 3 miles from downtown Minneapolis, which is home to theaters, sports arenas and the headquarters of national companies like Target. Commuting downtown takes 10-15 minutes by car. Metro Transit buses can get riders there in 20-25 minutes. The buses make several stops along Penn Avenue North and West Broadway Avenue. It’s also possible to bike there, since many major roads in the region have striped bike lanes.
Downtown is not the only commercial part of the city within reach. “You’re only a few minutes from the Northeast [Minneapolis Arts District] as well,” Howat says. “There are a lot of neighborhood restaurants and bars there.” The area also hosts Art-a-Whirl, one of the largest art festivals in the country, each May, combining gallery tours with food and live music.
Though Jordan is residential, people can easily get to parks and other green spaces when they want to have fun. Options include:
There are several popular restaurants along and just beyond the neighborhood’s borders. Tootie’s on Lowry is a community dive bar with burgers and wings. People often go there to play pool, throw darts or catch up with neighbors. Tap In Kitchen & Cocktails is a New American restaurant in a cozy space decorated with plants, pottery and other works of art. You can try The Lowry Cafe for a classic take on breakfast and lunch, and Pair of Dice Pizza is known for its rib tips in addition to its pizza. Nearby grocery stores include Cub Northside and So Low Grocery Outlet.
