    Set in east Bloomington just south of Minneapolis, 55420 blends suburban calm with everyday convenience. Tree-lined streets of midcentury ramblers and small apartments sit close to I-35W and I-494 for easy commutes, with MSP Airport and the Mall of America a short drive away. The four-season climate brings snowy winters, bright summers, and colorful fall walks along nearby river-bottoms and refuge trails. Life here feels community-driven: you’ll find Cub Foods and other grocers, coffee stops like Caribou and independent cafes, casual taquerias, pho spots, and classic diners along Lyndale, Nicollet, and Portland. Parks such as Wright’s Lake Park offer playgrounds, fishing piers, and open lawns that are popular with families and pets, and you’ll see plenty of joggers and cyclists on neighborhood loops. Southtown and the Penn American district add big-box shopping and gyms. Recent Zillow Rental Manager trends show the median asking rent hovering in the mid-$1,600s, with most listings ranging roughly $1,200–$2,200 in the past few months.
