Minneapolis Apartments for Rent

At one time Minneapolis was voted one of the top “cool cities” for young professionals. But this city offers more than just a booming job market. Well-respected higher education and cultural opportunities make finding an apartment for rent in Minneapolis a really smart idea.

Minneapolis’ collegiate scene is dominated by the University of Minnesota. The university was founded in 1851 and is the oldest and largest university in the state. This large campus is located in Minneapolis and St. Paul.

The university is one of Minneapolis’ major employers. But with a robust economy and several major businesses located here, it isn’t the only employer. Minneapolis is home to five Fortune 500 companies, including Target Corporation and US Bancorp, plus several Fortune 1000 and smaller firms.

And with a nightlife that doesn’t take a back seat to any of America’s larger metro areas, Minneapolis has been known to show up on Forbes Magazine’s list of the “Best Cities for Singles.” It’s easy to find an apartment in Minneapolis that is near the hip nightlife of the Warehouse District, where you can find plenty of good restaurants, trendy bars and clubs offering great music.
