Walkable Neighborhood

 I love the great outdoors and wide open spaces but that isn’t where I want to live.  I love the city and I like that I live in an area that is walkable and bikeable.  I am an urban dweller through an through and never met a big city that I did not like.  I like to see people when I go outside and I like having neighbors and I like that the closest coffee shop is on the corner.  I like noise and activity and public art and I would hate to have to drive miles to pick up a loaf of bread. 

The most walkble neighborhood in St. Paul is downtown St. Paul.  With a walk score of 97 which makes it a walkers paradise.  At least according to Walkscore.com .  If you are looking for a home in a walkable neighborhood give the site a try.  Type in an address or a zip code and get a walk score complete with a list of nearby amenities.   

There is also a mobile app to take along when house hunting.
