Urban chic, public artworks, and the famous Mall of America define the South Loop neighborhood of Bloomington. Residents of the many modern and renovated apartments in this community enjoy the best of city life, with the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport immediately to the north, downtown Bloomington only two miles to the west, and downtown Minneapolis just six miles away with convenient rail connections.

The Mall of America, the largest shopping mall in the United States, is one of the major employers in South Loop, and it also serves as a hub for locals with its many restaurants and entertainment options, including a comedy club, movie theater multiplex, indoor theme park, mini golf, and aquarium. When you need a break from city life, the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge wraps around the east side of South Loop, covering more than 14,000 acres and providing opportunities for hiking, fishing, and birdwatching.
