The Denfeld neighborhood is located within the West Duluth district of Duluth, Minnesota, United States. It consists mostly of closely spaced single-family residential homes, although a fair number of such houses have an area within the domicile registered as a rental unit. There are also a number of stores and businesses in the neighborhood concentrated along Grand Avenue.

Duluth Denfeld High School serves most of West Duluth; six neighborhoods farther to the west; and both Lincoln Park and Piedmont Heights to the east; and is an architectural icon of the neighborhood.

The first two victims of the 2024 Duluth, Minnesota shootings, a familicide with four fatalities excluding the suspect's death, were found dead in a Denfeld house.
