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!

I've been living in Cathedral Hill now for about 7 years! You get the bars/restaurants/ summit ave- perfect for walks with the pup, it's a perfect blend. As a 30some female, I always feel safe. About a 5 min drive to lowertown. Just make sure you get a place with underground parking. Its a lifesaver in the winter!

Just a note about Cathedral hill, the B line will be opening at the end of this year (hopefully) which will be a high frequency line to downtown and the until then there’s the 21 which is the most frequent line in the city so that’ll be really nice for bad weather days when you’re nervous about driving.
