Anyway, I thought the rest of your post was really good and spot on!
I think it depends how hard you look. I just looked up my old complex in Whittier, and it's still there for just under $800. Here's the link if you're curious.

Lived there for 2 years. Neighborhood is fairly safe. Management is responsive. Neighbors were pretty decent (no noise issues, no messiness issues, etc). There were a couple compromises: they're not the prettiest buildings, kitchen layout is weird, square footage isn't as much as some other buildings nearby. But really, nothing that's an enormous deal if you're single and your main goal is to affordably live in a decent place in Minneapolis. If I were to move back, I would have no reservations about renting from them again.

Yeah, this is a pretty good price for the area, it's true. But it goes to show it can definitely be done!
