Seward is perhaps the most politically liberal neighborhood in Minneapolis, with usually only a handful of votes in each precinct won by Republicans. The Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party and Green Party are major political forces. A major civic organization is the Seward Neighborhood Group and the community newspaper is The Bridge [1], a recent merger of two community publications, including the former Seward Profile.

One public school is located in the neighborhood, Seward Montessori School (uses the Montessori method in grades K-8) [2]. Attached to the latter school is Matthews Park and Recreation Center [3]. Anne Sullivan Communication Center (open to all students but emphasizing programs for the deaf and visually impaired) [4] is located just across the greenway in Longfellow neighborhood. Students from Seward Neighborhood can walk to both these schools.

The population of Seward in the 2000 U.S. Census was 7,174 [5]. Median household income in 1999 was $30,209 [6]. Approximately 18 percent of the population lived below poverty level in 1999, including 13 percent of families [7]. The median house value in 2000 was $112,000 [8].
