Duluth Heights

Local lore in Duluth Heights, Minnesota

Part of the Duluth Heights neighborhood guide. Back to the full guide.

  • Duluth Heights is where the rest of northeastern Minnesota comes to shop. Miller Hill draws from the Iron Range and the North Shore, not just from the city.
  • The neighborhood is essentially flat, which in Duluth is close to a novelty and is the single most-cited reason people move here from the hillside districts.
  • Miller Hill's growth is part of why downtown Duluth struggled for decades. The Heights won the retail competition, and the rest of the city has spent thirty years adapting.
  • The airport is six minutes away, which residents consider a feature until they buy on the wrong street, where it is also audible.
  • It is one of the few Duluth neighborhoods with meaningful townhome and condo stock, and therefore one of the few with a real low-maintenance option.
  • The school boundary running through the neighborhood means two houses a few blocks apart can send children to different high schools on opposite sides of the city.
