I went to school in the Twin Cities and lived there for almost 20 years.  They used to be perhaps one of the nicest urban areas to live back then (80's-90's) with very low crime and a very high standard of living, but I have heard that things have changed significantly (for the worst) in the last decade or so.  The area you mention (Lake of the Isles) along ewth Lake Calhoun and Lake Harriet were some of the nicest areas anywhere and just a short jog from downtown.  I am not sure they are as nice these days, however.  If that's true, it would be a shame.
