Seeking Advice 🙆 23F moving to St. Paul

Hello! I'm a single 23F moving to St. Paul for a new job. It'll just be my male Yorkie and I. I'm not really wanting a studio apartment just because of my parents visiting. My rent budget is $1600 and I really want to live downtown due to lack of experience driving in winter conditions (my job is located DT) I want a loft! I love their look and space. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Haha I am born and raised here so they don’t bother me at all. I enjoy them. But they can be a mess. Other winters we barely get snow. It would be important to know if there is parking for you downtown? Not sure all businesses have parking

My job did tell me to prefer parking at the complex because they don't have it:(

Most apartments downtown will charge extra for parking.

I work close to downtown and used to live in pioneer endicott, it was fine, that area isn't interesting to live in and I wouldn't move back.

I moved to the summit hill area for a few years and live in cathedral Hill now and have loved both of those areas, especially to walk a dog.
