What it’s like
The place. Angora is a small township in St. Louis County, Minnesota, where almost every home is lived in by its owners. Fewer residents live below the poverty line than is typical, and relatively few adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are long and cold, with a great deal of snow, and summers are mild and warm.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by farming, forestry and mining, the building trades and government. A modest number work from home. Across St. Louis County, some of the largest workplaces are St. Luke's Hospital of Duluth, St. Mary's Medical Center and the University of Minnesota-Duluth, and unemployment in the county has risen over the past year.
Things to do. The Iron Range Off-Highway Vehicle State Recreation Area is a short drive away and is a protected area set aside for off-highway riding, and the Rice River is also a short drive away. A longer drive brings you to Lake Vermilion, a large lake, and to Lake Vermilion-Soudan Underground Mine State Park, a protected area built around an old mine.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across St. Louis County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on St. Louis County and the Duluth, MN-WI metro.
