Located just six miles north of Downtown St. Paul, up Interstate Highway 35E, Little Canada is a small but growing community where residents place value on family and their heritage.

The Kaposia Band (Sioux Indians) were the first inhabitants to the area and made their summer homes in the area that is today Little Canada because of the abundant fishing and hunting resources. Not surprisingly, the first European-American settlers in the region were French/Canadians; they arrived around 1844. In 1850, the first school was established and classes were taught exclusively in French. Many of the descendents of these settlers still live in Little Canada today.

Little Canada has its own little "Chain of Lakes" in the Gervais--Kohlman's--Keller Lake chain in the northeast quadrant of the city. These lakes, along with 10 parks, afford plenty of recreation options in the summer months from boating and swimming, to biking and running on the trails, playground equipment for the kids and areas for picnicking and grilling. The community's annual summer festival is Canadian Days. But don't presume that only those of French Canadian descent reside in the city. The community welcomes people of all backgrounds.

The city houses many service-related companies such as real estate, pet services, construction, landscaping, barber shops and salons. With such close proximity to St. Paul, it's an easy commute to work outside of the city, and all the necessary services a person might require on a daily basis are conveniently at-hands. There's also a bowling alley/lounge and movie theater.

Head west to Roseville or east to Maplewood for abundant mall shopping. For local food, there is the decadent Taste of Scandinavia bakery, bringing a decidedly un-French Canadian sensibility to the community; Porterhouse Steaks and Seafood where the only thing better than the sirloin might be the friendly and efficient staff; or the Hoggsbreath Bar & Grill--an area mainstay for the past 30 years treating customers to great bar-type food and area radio deejays that bring a wide range of music to move to, from country-western to hard rock on their respective nights.

Homes here range from very luxurious, upscale ramblers, multi-levels and chalet-styles on high ground overlooking neighborhoods and lakes, to newer subdivision properties, town homes and more mature, modest communities of post-World War II ramblers, single and multi-levels, many of which could be considered "starter" homes. As a community, Little Canada starts to have the sprawling quality of suburbs further from the Metro. This community is making considerations for its growing senior population, and continues to place emphasis on promoting programs and facilities for the use of resident families.

In June 2007, the average home sales price for a single family home or condo in Little Canada, MN was $232,414. While this data is collected from the MLS and deemed reliable, it is not guaranteed.
