Core Neighborhoods
The City of St. Cloud believes that its core neighborhoods are the building blocks of the broader community. There are roughly 11 core neighborhoods in St. Cloud. Each neighborhood has a unique identity and opportunities that contribute to the broader community’s economy, heritage, diversity, activities, arts, entertainment, and social fabric. In some cases, neighborhoods already have defined boundaries and may even have an organized neighborhood association. In other cases, major streets define natural neighborhood boundaries, even where there is no formalized neighborhood association.
St. Cloud's Core Neighborhoods are a place to live where people can meet their economic, social, physical and cultural needs, while working together for the common good and participating in creating their future.
