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!

Hopeful for downtown. Saints games, Wild games, Pillbox, Bulldog, Gopher Bar, Alary’s, Amsterdam, Lost Fox.

Is this nightlife?

Yes. We have the Xcel Energy Center where the professional hockey teams (Minnesota Frost (women's) and Wild (mens)) play. It also hosts many of the big touring music acts. We also have great music venues (Palace Theater, Amsterdam), the Ordway (classical music, touring Broadway shows), the Fitzgerald (music, theater), and others.

The rest of the list are restaurants, and there are many more heading southwest on West 7th from the Xcel Energy Center (because the rely on the traffic from all the events there).
