Life in Duluth

Duluth, Minnesota is the fourth-larges city in the state, with a population of about 85,000. It is the county seat of St. Louis County. It is located on the north shore of Lake Superior, the largest of the Great Lakes.

Various Native American tribes have lived in the area now known as Duluth for thousands of years. The first permanent European settlement of Duluth was established in 1852, and discovery of significant deposits of copper and iron led to a land rush, creating rapid population growth.

Around the same time, newly-build channels linking the Great Lakes to the Atlantic Ocean allowed for large ships to access Duluth, further promoting economic growth.

During the first half of the 20th Century, Duluth, Minnesota underwent a major industrial boom, becoming an important center for steel manufacturing. However, by the 1970s, foreign competition began to seriously weaken the U.S. steel industry, leading to the closure of one of the major steel plants in the area.

More recently, Duluth, Minnesota has, with a good amount of success, transitioned into a tourism-based economy.
