With an abundance of city parks, schools, churches, a quaint downtown district and peaceful neighborhoods, North St. Paul is a town with a great quality of life. It is connected to a thriving metropolitan region and appreciates how this enhances residents’ access to a diversity of jobs, cultural and recreational opportunities, quality health care, and higher education opportunities.
