What makes St. Paul?
The small town feel of a large city. "I grew up in a small community in southern Minnesota and St. Paul and its residents give me the same comfortable feeling I had back then. The people are friendly and genuinely interested in your well being. I also love the way St. Paul manages and maintains the historical community within the context of the 21st century."
