About Miller Park

The Miller Park neighborhood surrounds one of Bloomington's oldest and best-loved public spaces, a 60-plus-acre park with a lake, pavilion and the Miller Park Zoo. Homes here are older and full of character, from early-1900s cottages to sturdier foursquares, at some of the more approachable price points in the city. The one thing that sets it apart is simple: you live next to the park, with green space and family attractions out your door.
