Northeast Minneapolis Real Estate | Minneapolis Real Estate

Northeast is composed of 13 smaller neighborhoods whose street addresses end in "NE".

Northeast real estate is blended throughout a heritage of old architecture, classic housing, bustling commercial streets, and industrial work centers, along with new residential high-rises, suburban cul-de-sacs, big-box retail, and a popular art scene, Northeast homes offer diverse amenities as part bedroom neighborhood and job center for the city of Minneapolis.

The prominent features of Northeast include ornate Eastern European influenced churches and massive grain silos and mills. Mostly built around the late 19th to early 20th century, these structures shadow the landscape of modest Victorians and four story apartments.

The Polish presence in "Nordeast" remains strong, including the names of local businesses that still bear the mark of the area's Eastern European population such as Nye’s Polonaise Room, Kramarczuk's Deli and Sausage Company and Surdyk's Liquors. Also, the Polish American Cultural Institute of Minnesota has its library and headquarters on Central Avenue.

In recent years, the demographics of Northeast have changed, the population becoming younger and more diverse, while retaining a stable base of old "Nordeast" families, often in their third or fourth generation. Students attending the nearby University of Minnesota frequently rent and many have settled. African Americans have migrated from the north side to Northeast's more stable neighborhoods and affordable housing opportunities. New immigrant groups (Somalis and Latin Americans) of a variety of nationalities have continued the tradition of Northeast as a haven for immigrants. Seventy-nine percent of housing in the area is owner occupied which has continued to contribute to the stability of neighborhoods.
