Saint Paul ( abbreviated St. Paul ) is the capital and second-most populous city of the U.S. state of Minnesota. As of 2017, the city 's estimated population was 309,180. Saint Paul is the county seat of Ramsey County, the smallest and most densely populated county in Minnesota. The city lies mostly on the east bank of the Mississippi River in the area surrounding its point of confluence with the Minnesota River, and adjoins Minneapolis, the state 's largest city. Known as the `` Twin Cities '', the two form the core of Minneapolis -- Saint Paul, the 16th - largest metropolitan area in the United States, with about 3.6 million residents. Founded near historic Native American settlements as a trading and transportation center, the city rose to prominence when it was named the capital of the Minnesota Territory in 1849. The Dakota name for Saint Paul is `` Imnizaska ''. Though Minneapolis ( Bdeota ) is better - known nationally, Saint Paul contains the state government and other important institutions. Regionally, the city is known for the Xcel Energy Center, home of the Minnesota Wild, and for the Science Museum of Minnesota. As a business hub of the Upper Midwest, it is the headquarters of companies such as Ecolab. Saint Paul, along with its Twin City, Minneapolis, is known for its high literacy rate. It was the only city in the United States with a population of 250,000 or more to see an increase in circulation of Sunday newspapers in 2007. The settlement originally began at present - day Lambert 's Landing, but was known as Pig 's Eye after Pierre `` Pig 's Eye '' Parrant established a popular tavern there. When Lucien Galtier, the first Catholic pastor of the region, established the Log Chapel of Saint Paul ( shortly thereafter to become the first location of the Cathedral of Saint Paul ), he made it known that the settlement was now to be called by that name, as `` Saint Paul as applied to a town or city was well appropriated, this monosyllable is short, sounds good, it is understood by all Christian denominations ''.

From the early 17th century until 1837, the Mdewakanton Dakota, a tribe of the Sioux, lived near the mounds after fleeing their ancestral home of Mille Lacs Lake from advancing Ojibwe. They called the area I - mni - za ska dan ( `` little white rock '' ) for its exposed white sandstone cliffs. Following the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, US Army officer Zebulon Pike negotiated approximately 100,000 acres ( 40,000 ha ; 160 sq mi ) of land from the local Dakota tribes in 1805 to establish a fort. The negotiated territory was located on both banks of the Mississippi River, starting from Saint Anthony Falls in present - day Minneapolis, to its confluence with the Saint Croix River. Fort Snelling was built on the territory in 1819 at the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers, which formed a natural barrier to both Native American nations. The 1837 Treaty with the Sioux ceded all local tribal land east of the Mississippi to the U.S. Government. Taoyateduta ( Chief Little Crow V ) moved his band at Kaposia across the river to the south. Fur traders, explorers, and missionaries came to the area for the fort 's protection. Many of the settlers were French - Canadians who lived nearby. However, as a whiskey trade flourished, military officers banned settlers from the fort - controlled lands. Pierre `` Pig 's Eye '' Parrant, a retired fur trader - turned - bootlegger who particularly irritated officials, set up his tavern, the Pig 's Eye, near present - day Lambert 's Landing. By the early 1840s, the community had become important as a trading center and a destination for settlers heading west. Locals called the area Pig 's Eye ( French : L'Œil du Cochon ) or Pig 's Eye Landing after Parrant 's popular tavern. Joe Rolette was responsible for preventing the capital of Minnesota from moving to Saint Peter. In 1841, Father Lucien Galtier was sent to minister to the Catholic French Canadians and established a chapel, named for his favorite saint, Paul the Apostle, on the bluffs above Lambert 's Landing. Galtier intended for the settlement to adopt the name Saint Paul in honor of the new chapel. In 1847, a New York educator named Harriet Bishop moved to the area and opened the city 's first school. The Minnesota Territory was formalized in 1849 and Saint Paul named as its capital. In 1857, the territorial legislature voted to move the capital to Saint Peter. However, Joe Rolette, a territorial legislator, stole the physical text of the approved bill and went into hiding, thus preventing the move. On May 11, 1858, Minnesota was admitted to the union as the thirty - second state, with Saint Paul as the capital. That year, more than 1,000 steamboats were in service at Saint Paul, making the city a gateway for settlers to the Minnesota frontier or Dakota Territory. Natural geography was a primary reason that the city became a landing. The area was the last accessible point to unload boats coming upriver due to the Mississippi River Valley 's stone bluffs. During this period, Saint Paul was called `` The Last City of the East. '' Industrialist James J. Hill constructed and expanded his network of railways into the Great Northern Railway and Northern Pacific Railway, which were headquartered in Saint Paul. Today they are collectively part of the BNSF Railway. On August 20, 1904, severe thunderstorms and tornadoes damaged hundreds of downtown buildings, causing USD $1.78 million ( $48.48 million present - day ) in damages to the city and ripping spans from the High Bridge. In the 1960s, during urban renewal, Saint Paul razed western neighborhoods close to downtown. The city also contended with the creation of the interstate freeway system in a fully built landscape. From 1959 to 1961, the western Rondo Neighborhood was demolished by the construction of Interstate 94, which brought attention to racial segregation and unequal housing in northern cities. The annual Rondo Days celebration commemorates the African American community. Downtown had short skyscraper - building booms beginning in the 1970s. The tallest buildings, such as Galtier Plaza ( Jackson and Sibley Towers ), The Pointe of Saint Paul condominiums, and the city 's tallest building, Wells Fargo Place ( formerly Minnesota World Trade Center ), were constructed in the late 1980s. In the 1990s and 2000s, the tradition of bringing new immigrant groups to the city continued. As of 2004, nearly 10 % of the city 's population were recent Hmong immigrants from Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, and Myanmar. Saint Paul is the location of the Hmong Archives. Geography The Meeker Island Lock and Dam was the first lock and dam on the Mississippi River in 1902. Saint Paul 's history and growth as a landing port are tied to water. The city 's defining physical characteristic, the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers, was carved into the region during the last ice age, as were the steep river bluffs and dramatic palisades on which the city is built. Receding glaciers and Lake Agassiz forced torrents of water from a glacial river that undercut the river valleys. The city is situated in east - central Minnesota. The Mississippi River forms a municipal boundary on part of the city 's west, southwest, and southeast sides. Minneapolis, the state 's largest city, lies to the west. Falcon Heights, Lauderdale, Roseville, and Maplewood are north, with Maplewood lying to the east. The cities of West Saint Paul and South Saint Paul are to the south, as are Lilydale, Mendota, and Mendota Heights, although across the river from the city. The city 's largest lakes are Pig 's Eye Lake, which is part of the Mississippi, Lake Phalen, and Lake Como. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 56.18 square miles ( 145.51 km ), of which 51.98 square miles ( 134.63 km ) is land and 4.20 square miles ( 10.88 km ) is water. The Parks and Recreation department is responsible for 160 parks and 41 recreation centers. The city ranked # 2 in park access and quality, after only Minneapolis, in the 2018 ParkScore ranking of the top 100 park systems across the United States according to the nonprofit Trust for Public Land. Neighborhoods Main article : Neighborhoods of Saint Paul Saint Paul 's Department of Planning and Economic Development divides Saint Paul into seventeen Planning Districts, created in 1979 to allow neighborhoods to participate in governance and use Community Development Block Grants. With a funding agreement directly from the city, the councils share a pool of funds. The councils have significant land - use control, a voice in guiding development, and they organize residents. The boundaries are adjusted depending on population changes ; as such, they sometimes overlap established neighborhoods. Though these neighborhoods changed over time, preservationists have saved many of their historically significant structures. The city 's seventeen Planning Districts are : Sunray - Battle Creek - Highwood Greater East Side West Side Dayton 's Bluff Payne - Phalen North End Thomas Dale ( Frogtown ) Summit - University West End Como Park Hamline - Midway Saint Anthony Park Union Park Macalester - Groveland Highland Park Summit Hill Downtown Climate See also : Climate of the Twin Cities and Climate of Minnesota The city skyline from the southwest in the winter Saint Paul has a continental climate typical of the Upper Midwestern United States. Winters are frigid and snowy, while summers are warm to hot and humid. On the Köppen climate classification, Saint Paul falls in the hot summer humid continental climate zone ( Dfa ). The city experiences a full range of precipitation and related weather events, including snow, sleet, ice, rain, thunderstorms, tornadoes, and fog. Due to its northerly location in the United States and lack of large bodies of water to moderate the air, Saint Paul is sometimes subjected to cold Arctic air masses, especially during late December, January, and February. The average annual temperature of 47.05 ° F ( 8.36 ° C ) gives the Minneapolis − Saint Paul metropolitan area the coldest annual mean temperature of any major metropolitan area in the continental U.S. Climate data for Saint Paul, Minnesota Month Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Year Record high ° F ( ° C ) 57 ( 14 ) 59 ( 15 ) 83 ( 28 ) 93 ( 34 ) 93 ( 34 ) 103 ( 39 ) 105 ( 41 ) 103 ( 39 ) 95 ( 35 ) 88 ( 31 ) 75 ( 24 ) 66 ( 19 ) 105 ( 41 ) Average high ° F ( ° C ) 26 ( − 3 ) 31 ( − 1 ) 43 ( 6 ) 58 ( 14 ) 71 ( 22 ) 80 ( 27 ) 85 ( 29 ) 82 ( 28 ) 73 ( 23 ) 59 ( 15 ) 42 ( 6 ) 29 ( − 2 ) 57 ( 14 ) Daily mean ° F ( ° C ) 16.5 ( − 8.6 ) 21.5 ( − 5.8 ) 33.5 ( 0.8 ) 48 ( 9 ) 60.5 ( 15.8 ) 69.5 ( 20.8 ) 74.5 ( 23.6 ) 72 ( 22 ) 63 ( 17 ) 50 ( 10 ) 34.5 ( 1.4 ) 21 ( − 6 ) 47.05 ( 8.36 ) Average low ° F ( ° C ) 7 ( − 14 ) 12 ( − 11 ) 24 ( − 4 ) 38 ( 3 ) 50 ( 10 ) 59 ( 15 ) 64 ( 18 ) 62 ( 17 ) 53 ( 12 ) 41 ( 5 ) 27 ( − 3 ) 13 ( − 11 ) 38 ( 3 ) Record low ° F ( ° C ) − 29 ( − 34 ) − 32 ( − 36 ) − 25 ( − 32 ) ( − 16 ) 21 ( − 6 ) 36 ( 2 ) 45 ( 7 ) 42 ( 6 ) 26 ( − 3 ) 15 ( − 9 ) − 14 ( − 26 ) − 29 ( − 34 ) − 32 ( − 36 ) Average precipitation inches ( mm ) 0.79 ( 20.1 ) 0.67 ( 17 ) 1.54 ( 39.1 ) 2.87 ( 72.9 ) 3.7 ( 94 ) 4.21 ( 106.9 ) 4.41 ( 112 ) 4.76 ( 120.9 ) 3.27 ( 83.1 ) 2.91 ( 73.9 ) 1.81 ( 46 ) ( 28 ) 32.04 ( 813.9 ) Source # 1 : U.S. climate data Source # 2 : The Weather Channel Demographics Historical population Census Pop. % ± 1850 1,112 -- 1860 10,401 835.3 % 1870 20,030 92.6 % 1880 41,473 107.1 % 1890 133,156 221.1 % 1900 163,065 22.5 % 1910 214,744 31.7 % 1920 234,698 9.3 % 1930 271,606 15.7 % 1940 287,736 5.9 % 1950 311,349 8.2 % 1960 313,411 0.7 % 1970 309,980 − 1.1 % 1980 270,230 − 12.8 % 1990 272,235 0.7 % 2000 287,151 5.5 % 285,068 − 0.7 % Est. 2018 309,180 8.5 % U.S. Decennial Census 2015 Estimate Main article : Demographics of Saint Paul Demographic profile 2000 1990 1970 White 60.1 % 67.0 % 82.3 % 95.4 % -- Non-Hispanic 55.9 % 64.0 % 80.4 % 93.6 % Black or African American 15.7 % 11.7 % 7.4 % 3.5 % Hispanic or Latino ( of any race ) 9.6 % 7.9 % 4.2 % 2.1 % Asian 15.0 % 12.4 % 7.1 % 0.2 % The earliest known inhabitants from about 400 A.D. were members of the Hopewell tradition who buried their dead in mounds ( now Indian Mounds Park ) on the bluffs above the river. The next known inhabitants were the Mdewakanton Dakota in the 17th century who fled their ancestral home of Mille Lacs Lake in central Minnesota in response to westward expansion of the Ojibwe nation. The Ojibwe would later occupy the north ( east ) bank of the Mississippi River. By 1800, French - Canadian explorers came through the region and attracted fur traders to the area. Fort Snelling and nearby Pig 's Eye Tavern also brought the first Yankees from New England and English, Irish, and Scottish immigrants who had enlisted in the army and settled nearby after discharge. These early settlers and entrepreneurs built houses on the heights north of the river. The first wave of immigration came with the Irish who settled at Connemara Patch along the Mississippi, named for their home in Connemara Ireland. The Irish would become prolific in politics, city governance, and public safety, much to the chagrin of the Germans and French who had grown into the majority. In 1850, the first of many groups of Swedish immigrants passed through Saint Paul on their way to farming communities in northern and western regions of the territory. A large group settled in Swede Hollow, which would later become home to Poles, Italians, and Mexicans. The last Swedish presence had moved up Saint Paul 's East Side along Payne Avenue in the 1950s. In terms of people who specified European ancestry in the 2005 - 2007 American Community Survey, the city was 26.4 % German, 13.8 % Irish, 8.4 % Norwegian, 7.0 % Swedish, and 6.2 % English. There is also a visible community of people of Sub-Saharan African ancestry, representing 4.2 % of Saint Paul 's population. By the 1980s, the Thomas Dale area, once an Austro - Hungarian enclave known as Frogtown ( German : Froschburg ), became home to Vietnamese people who had left their war - torn country. A settlement program for the Hmong diaspora came soon after, and by 2000, the Saint Paul Hmong were the largest urban contingent in the United States. Mexican immigrants have settled in Saint Paul 's West Side since the 1930s, and have grown enough that Mexico opened a foreign consulate in 2005. The majority of residents claiming religious affiliation are Christian, split between the Roman Catholic Church and various Protestant denominations. The Roman Catholic presence comes from Irish, German, Scottish, and French Canadian settlers who, in time, would be bolstered by Hispanic immigrants. There are Jewish synagogues such as Mount Zion Temple and relatively small populations of Hindus, Muslims, and Buddhists. The city has been dubbed `` paganistan '' due to its large Wiccan population. As of the 2005 - 2007 American Community Survey conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, White Americans made up 66.5 % of Saint Paul 's population, of whom 62.1 % were non-Hispanic whites, down from 93.6 % in 1970.

Economy The Ford Motor Company 's Twin Cities Assembly Plant in 2006 The Minneapolis -- Saint Paul -- Bloomington area employs 1,570,700 people in the private sector as of July 2008, 82.43 percent of which work in private service providing - related jobs. Major corporations headquartered in Saint Paul include Ecolab, a chemical and cleaning product company which was named in 2008 by the Minneapolis / St. Paul Business Journal as the eighth best place to work in the Twin Cites for companies with 1,000 full - time Minnesota employees, and Securian Financial Group Inc. The 3M Company is often cited as one of Saint Paul 's companies, though it is located in adjacent Maplewood. 3M employs 16,000 people throughout Minnesota. St. Jude Medical, a manufacturer of medical devices, is directly across the northern border of Saint Paul in Little Canada, though the company 's address is listed in Saint Paul. The city was home to the Ford Motor Company 's Twin Cities Assembly Plant, which opened in 1924 and closed at the end of 2011. The plant was in Highland Park on the Mississippi River, adjacent to Lock and Dam No. 1, Mississippi River, which generates hydroelectric power. The site is now being cleared of all buildings and tested for contamination to prepare for redevelopment. The city of Saint Paul has financed city development by use of tax increment financing ( TIF ). In 2018, the city had 55 TIF districts. Some projects that have benefited from TIF funding include the St. Paul Saints stadium, and the affordable housing along the Twin Cities Metro Green Line.

Bill McGuire and his ownership group, which includes Jim Pohlad of the Minnesota Twins, Glen Taylor of the Minnesota Timberwolves, former Minnesota Wild investor Glen Nelson, and his daughter Wendy Carlson Nelson of the Carlson hospitality company, had intended to build a privately financed soccer - specific stadium in Downtown Minneapolis near the Minneapolis Farmer 's Market, but their plan was met with heavy opposition from Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges, who said her city was suffering from `` stadium fatigue '' after building three stadiums, for the Minnesota Twins, Minnesota Vikings and the Minnesota Golden Gophers, within a six - year span. On July 1, 2015, after failing to reach an agreement with the city of Minneapolis, McGuire and his partners turned their focus to Saint Paul.

Saint Paul City Hall and Ramsey County Courthouse The city is also the county seat of Ramsey County, named for Alexander Ramsey, the state 's first governor. The county once spanned much of the present - day metropolitan area and was originally to be named Saint Paul County after the city. Today it is geographically the smallest county and the most densely populated. Ramsey is the only home rule county in Minnesota ; the seven - member Board of Commissioners appoints a county manager whose office is in the combination city hall / county courthouse along with the Minnesota Second Judicial Courts. The nearby Law Enforcement Center houses the Ramsey County Sheriff 's office.

Education 1930s - era students at Hamline University taking finals Main article : Education in Saint Paul, Minnesota Saint Paul is second in the United States in the number of higher education institutions per capita. Higher education institutions that call Saint Paul home include three public and eight private colleges and universities and five post-secondary institutions. Well - known colleges and universities include the Saint Catherine University, Concordia University, Hamline University, Macalester College, and the University of St. Thomas. Metropolitan State University and Saint Paul College, which focus on non-traditional students, are based in Saint Paul, as well as a law school, Mitchell Hamline School of Law. The Saint Paul Public Schools district is the state 's largest school district and serves approximately 39,000 students. The district is extremely diverse with students from families speaking 90 different languages, although only five languages are used for most school communication : English, Spanish, Hmong, Karen, and Somali. The district runs 82 different schools, including 52 elementary schools, twelve middle schools, seven high schools, ten alternative schools, and one special education school, employing over 6,500 teachers and staff. The school district also oversees community education programs for pre-K and adult learners, including Early Childhood Family Education, GED Diploma, language programs, and various learning opportunities for community members of all ages. In 2006, Saint Paul Public Schools celebrated its 150th anniversary. Some students attend public schools in other school districts chosen by their families under Minnesota 's open enrollment statute. A variety of K - 12 private, parochial, and public charter schools are also represented in the city. In 1992, Saint Paul became the first city in the US to sponsor and open a charter school, now found in most states across the nation. Saint Paul is currently home to 21 charter schools as well as 38 private schools. The Saint Paul Public Library system includes a Central Library and twelve branch locations. Media Main article : Media in the Twin Cities Minnesota Public Radio headquarters in downtown Saint Paul Residents of Saint Paul can receive 10 broadcast television stations, five of which broadcast from within Saint Paul. One daily newspaper, the St. Paul Pioneer Press, two weekly neighborhood newspapers, the East Side Review and City Pages ( owned by The Star Tribune Company ), and several monthly or semimonthly neighborhood papers serve the city. Several media outlets based in neighboring Minneapolis also serve the Saint Paul community, including the Star Tribune. Saint Paul is home to Minnesota Public Radio, a three - format system that broadcasts on nearly 40 stations around the Midwest. MPR locally delivers news and information, classical, and The Current ( which plays a wide variety of music ). The station has 110,000 regional members and more than 800,000 listeners each week throughout the Upper Midwest, the largest audience of any regional public radio network. Also operating as part of American Public Media, MPR 's programming reaches five million listeners, most notably through Live from Here, hosted by Chris Thile ( previously known as A Prairie Home Companion, hosted by Garrison Keillor, who also lives in the city ). The Fitzgerald Theater, renamed in 1994 for Saint Paul native and novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald, is home to the show. Transportation Interstate and roadways Interstate Highways Interstate 35E Interstate 94 US Highways US 10 US 52 US 61 Minnesota Highways Highway 5 Highway 51 Highway 280 I - 94 as it enters downtown Saint Paul from the west Residents use Interstate 35E running north - south and Interstate 94 running east - west. Trunk highways include U.S. Highway 52, Minnesota State Highway 280, and Minnesota State Highway 5. Saint Paul has several unique roads such as Ayd Mill Road, Phalen Boulevard and Shepard Road / Warner Road, which diagonally follow particular geographic features in the city. Biking is also gaining popularity, due to the creation of more paved bike lanes that connect to other bike routes throughout the metropolitan area and the creation of Nice Ride Minnesota, a seasonally operated nonprofit bicycle sharing and rental system that has over 1,550 bicycles and 170 stations in both Minneapolis and Saint Paul. Downtown Saint Paul has a five - mile ( 8 km ) enclosed skyway system over twenty - five city blocks. The 563 - mile ( 906 km ) Avenue of the Saints connects Saint Paul with Saint Louis, Missouri. The layout of city streets and roads has often drawn complaints. While he was Governor of Minnesota, Jesse Ventura appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman, and remarked that the streets were designed by `` drunken Irishmen ''. He later apologized, though people had been complaining about the fractured grid system for more than a century by that point. Some of the city 's road design is the result of the curve of the Mississippi River, hilly topography, conflicts between developers of different neighborhoods in the early city, and grand plans only half - realized. Outside of downtown, the roads are less confusing, but most roads are named, rather than numbered, increasing the difficulty for non-natives to navigate. Mass Transit See also : Metro Transit ( Minnesota ) Metro Transit provides bus service and light rail in the Minneapolis -- Saint Paul area. The METRO Green Line is an 11 - mile ( 18 km ) light rail line that connects downtown Saint Paul to downtown Minneapolis with 14 stations in Saint Paul. The Green Line runs west along University Avenue, through the University of Minnesota campus, until it links up and then shares stations with the METRO Blue Line in downtown Minneapolis. Construction began in November 2010 and the line began service on June 14, 2014. Roughly 45,000 people rode on the first day ; an average 28,000 riders are expected per day. Metro Transit opened the METRO A Line, Minneapolis -- Saint Paul 's first arterial bus rapid transit line, along Snelling Avenue and Ford Parkway. The A Line connects the METRO Blue Line at 46th Street station to Rosedale Center with a connection at the Green Line Snelling Avenue station. The A Line is the first in a series of planned arterial bus rapid transit lines and is set to open in early 2016. Railroad Amtrak 's Empire Builder between Chicago and Seattle stops once daily in each direction at the newly renovated Saint Paul Union Station. Ridership on the train is increasing, about 6 % from 2005 to over 505,000 in fiscal year 2007. Increased ridership has prompted southern Minnesota leaders to plan for an expansion of Amtrak 's service in the area. Saint Paul is the site of the Pig 's Eye Yard, a major freight classification yard for Canadian Pacific Railway. As of 2003, the yard handled over 1,000 freight cars per day. Both Union Pacific and Burlington Northern Santa Fe run trains through the yard, though they are not classified at Pig 's Eye. Burlington Northern Santa Fe operates the large Northtown Yard in Minneapolis, which handles about 600 cars per day. There are several other small yards located around the city. Saint Paul Downtown Airport ( Holman Field ) Airports See also : St. Paul Downtown Airport Saint Paul is served by the Minneapolis -- Saint Paul International Airport ( MSP ), which sits on 3,400 acres ( 14 km ) southwest of the city on the west side of the Mississippi River between Minnesota State Highway 5, Interstate 494, Minnesota State Highway 77, and Minnesota State Highway 62. The airport serves three international, twelve domestic, seven charter, and four regional carriers and is a hub and home base for Delta Air Lines, Mesaba Airlines and Sun Country Airlines. Saint Paul is also served by the St. Paul Downtown Airport located just south of downtown, across the Mississippi River. The airport, also known as Holman Field, is a reliever airport run by the Metropolitan Airports Commission. The airport houses Minnesota 's Air National Guard and is tailored to local corporate aviation. There are three runways that serve about 100 resident aircraft and a flight training school. The Holman Field Administration Building and Riverside Hangar are on the National Register of Historic Places.
