When I was living north of Dinkytown, it was a 35-minute walk each way, not what I could pull off every day when at my more fatigued.
Yeah, the comment was basically my bad habit of talking to myself in media where I'm actually talking to someone else. I'm by no means trying to discourage you from moving there if you like. And, as I say, the artsy types (you hang with artsy types so close enough) move to where the housing is cheap until the wealthy hipsters move in and push the housing costs too high, at which point the artsy types to the new cheap housing. It's certainly something worth considering, and it's sounded like you haven't been happy with your current situation (which, apropos of nothing, isn't the best for groceries either) for a while.
Did you live there when Lunds wasn't open? There was a serious dry spell there after they tore down the SuperValu and the Lunds was yet to be. It was pretty grim and I'm a dedicated Marcy-Holmes dweller.
Technically, I lived one block south of Hennepin Ave, which is considered the NE/SE border. Anything east of the river is going to be hard for groceries, anyway, esp affordable ones.
