Here’s an honest look, whether you’re selling or buying.
What to know
Page Elementary School was named after Walter Hines Page, who was an American editor and diplomat born in the mid 1850’s. The neighborhood is mainly residential with Pearl Park in the very center.
Page signifies one of the top neighborhoods of South Minneapolis. Excellent residential areas characterize the neighborhood with convenient access to commercial and recreational locations inside the big city. Natural landmarks make the neighborhood, with its many parks, green spaces and bodies of water, including Diamond Lake and Minnehaha Creek, a place full of charming scenery. Among the households, more than 90% are single-family homes with styles ranging from early 20th century two-story colonial, Tudors, and 1950’s Ramblers. With 4,500 residents, this neighborhood projects the pleasantries of a charming community that is in close proximity to the big city.
A major landmark within the neighborhood is the Minnehaha Bunny. A gateway landmark for Page and the surrounding neighborhoods, the Minnehaha Bunny is a favorite location for the community. Kids love to climb and play along the sculpture, and it makes a common meeting place among locals. Since 2002 the bunny has been a staple of the local community.
