Welcome to Standish
The quiet suburb of Standish offers residents stable, thriving and quiet living just minutes from downtown Minneapolis. Swedish and Norwegian immigrants began building homes here in the early 1900s, and their cultural influences can still be felt in the area through Dutch Colonial homes and local businesses. Standish got its name from an area elementary school called Miles Standish, after a work by the poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Standish is a close-knit community where residents come together through organizations like the Standish-Ericsson Neighborhood Association (SENA), YMCA and block clubs. Block parties and barbeques are a part of regular life here, and neighbors really get to know each other. Residents have access to amenities like the light rail and natural beauty like the lakes, Minnehaha Creek, Minnehaha Falls and the Mississippi River.
Standish is a wonderful neighborhood to live, work, and play in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

I have lived here all my life and i can honestly say that i have enjoyed it very much. Sure it is not the most lavish place to live but everyone is very kind, all races, ethnicity's, and sexual orientations are welcome. The community is however not extremely connected, i do wish that there would be move of a connection between neighbors and people in the area, but other than that it is a great area.
