Jaycee Park Home for Sale

Jaycee Park is a Mankato neighborhood that blends off-campus housing with single-family homes by the Minnesota State University, Mankato campus. The area's green spaces include Jaycee Park itself, which features a playground, baseball fields and a skate park. Lion’s Park, located about half a mile south, offers a dog-friendly walking trail and a fishing lake. The neighborhood has a mix of older ranch-style and two-story homes alongside new developments, but more than 70% of the area's properties are apartment buildings, such as Glenwood Terrace Apartments. Mankato Area Public Schools serve the community with well-rated institutions such as Washington Elementary, Prairie Winds Middle and Mankato East High. Dining options near the MSU campus include Shawarmania Mediterranean Grill and Jake’s Stadium Pizza, and grocery shopping is available 2 miles away at Aldi. Jaycee Park is primarily car-dependent, but bus stops and cycling paths provide alternatives. The Mayo Clinic Health System campus and Mankato Clinic are located about 2 miles north, while Old Town Mankato, known for cultural events like its Day of the Dead festivities, is 3 miles away.
