What is the history of Duluth?

Duluth was an important outpost for fur trading in the 1800s, and it later developed into an important iron ore mining location. In the early 1900s, Duluth was the leading port in the US and saw wave after wave of immigrants due to an industry and mining boom. The prosperity soon ended, however, when from the 1950s-70s Duluth endured a huge economic decline when the iron ore ran out, in response, the economy shifted to tourism.

How do I get around town?

The Duluth International Airport flies to Minneapolis and Chicago daily. The Duluth Transit Authority oversees the local bus system, and the Skyline Shuttle provides daily transportation to the Twin Cities (aka Minneapolis-Saint Paul) and the airport there.

Where is the best place to move in Duluth?

According to Duluthians, there is no “bad” place to live in the city. Duluth has a number of neighborhoods, each with its own feel and attractions. Duluth is built on quite a hill (thus the steep streets), so some neighborhoods have wonderful scenic views, such as Piedmont Heights and Bayview Heights. If you want to live near the University of Minnesota Duluth, you can live in the Chester Park neighborhood. If you want to have easy access to some of the landmarks and attractions previously mentioned, try living near the downtown and Canal Park areas in the Central Hillside neighborhood.
