The largest minority groups, Jews and blacks, settled in North Minneapolis “because it was one of the few areas that would rent to them when more blatant discrimination abounded in housing prac-tices,” noted the June 2, 2013, essay “A Brief History of Jews and African Americans in North Minneapolis,” by Rachel Quednau on The -City -Space.com:
Jews from Russia and Eastern Europe moved into the Northside during a general period of immigration—the early 1900s....

...Department stores such as Montgomery Ward refused to interview Jewish job applicants. Many neighborhoods were ‘restricted,’ barring Jews, Blacks, and even Catholics and Italians. Jewish teachers were few and far between.” The discrimination was “much more pro-nounced in Minneapolis than in St. Paul,” according to McWilliams.

So, with the first chance to get out, after World War II, the Jews left the ***Northside urban core of Minneapolis*** en masse for St. Louis Park. As Quednau put it, “Many of them had ascended in class and wealth since they or their parents immigrated to America, and this allowed them more control over their housing along with more opportunity to be treated fairly in the housing market.”
