Saint Paul Park offers small-town living on the Mississippi River
Saint Paul Park is a small Twin Cities suburb on the eastern banks of the Mississippi River.

People can sit down for a meal at several spots along Broadway Avenue, while convenient highway access makes the area appealing to commuters.

What people often pay for ramblers and New Traditional homes
Many of Saint Paul Park's homes were built in the mid- to late 1900s, and buyers will find ramblers, split-level homes, bungalows and New Traditional houses spread throughout the area. Prices often fall between the mid-$100,000s and the mid-$500,000s. There are a handful of townhomes that can run from the lower $200,000s to the upper $300,000s. Some have HOA fees between $270 and $340 per month, and others don't have fees. Realtor and area native Mark Duffy, of Duffy Homes Group and Keller Williams Select, says houses in the city can be "a bit more country than homes on the other side of the river" and often sit on large lots. Tall trees are spread throughout the city, and some properties back up onto thick woods. The area tends to be less expensive than neighboring cities like Cottage Grove, as well as communities across the river like Inver Grove Heights.

It's easy to get on the water, and there's plenty of space for sports
The Mississippi River shapes the city's outdoor life, with Lions Levee Park providing a boat launch and picnic areas by the water. It's also a popular spot for fishing. Riverside Park, overseen by the city and the National Park Service, is a nature study area on the Mississippi's backwaters. The park's trails run past native plants and limestone bluffs, and visitors can see plenty of birds and other wildlife. Each winter, the trails are open for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. Heritage Park has lots of ball fields and sports courts as well as a playground.
