I'm not in the market to rent a place in the Twin Cities right now, but I expect to be looking sometime in the coming months.  I currently live in Dassel, which is about 60 miles west of Minneapolis.

I am in the job search process, so I don't know where I'll be working.  The area I would like to live is inside the Interstate 94/494/694 Beltway and west of Interstate 35E.

What areas are decent, yet reasonably priced?  More importantly, what are the neighboorhoods to avoid?
