Pros: Lakes and outdoor activities. Museums. Mall of America.
Airport close to city. Affordable restaurants. Cons: Extreme climate. Downtowns feel drab and impersonal.
Minneapolis and St Paul, also known as The Twin Cities, have a diverse, pleasant landscape and have become a major metropolitan area, with over 2,600,000 residents. I’ve lived in the Twin Cities area for eighteen years and have not run out of fun ...
Pros: thriving cultural scene Cons: hideous climate
Having grown up in rural Minnesota, I know that the climate is extreme, with very cold winters and muggy summers that are made even more unpleasant by large mosquitoes and/or fogs of anti-mosquito chemicals. However, the cultural climate is far more ...
Pros: Thriving arts scene, where else can you get walleye on a stick? Cons: Even with recent immigrants from Somalia, Southeast Asia and elsewhere, still a rather white bread town.
The Twin Cities is a mid-sized urban area with a wide assortment of interesting things to do and see. I’ve lived here since 1974 (New Jersey’s biggest export is people), moving back and forth between Minneapolis and Saint Paul several times. The Twin...
As a gardener, I'm adequate; but as a garden voyeur, I'm an accomplished fanatic. Peering into my neighbors' yards doesn't quite quench my flora curiosity; thank goodness for public gardens!
Pros: So many free things to do Cons: Non-car-owners will need to get friendly with the bus system quickly
I think they're more like fraternal twins: St. Paul is the classy sibling, the one who lives in a 100-year-old mansion, complete with butler, and sips wine while watching the Minnesota Wild. Minneapolis is the one who wears the black beret while buying ...
Pros: Downtown nightlife and time on the lake minutes apart, with everything you want in between. Cons: C'mon, I love this place
I was born in the suburbs of Minneapolis, and have lived in the city for 7 of my last 8 years. After reading some of the negative reviews of my city, I had to put my thoughts down. For those of you who claim Minneapolis isn't great due to the cold in ...
Pros: Nightlife, clean city, little crime, lots to do Cons: Cold winters, Mall of America hype
I spent 10 days in Minneapolis for business and was really not looking forward to it! By the time I left I was ready to move to Minneapolis! WOW, what a great city.
First of all, being the forever single guy because I am so picky, well, I...
Pros: many different things to do, great people, beautiful area Cons: can be chilly in the winter...
When you say Minnesota to most people, they think of the cold weather and the movie "Fargo". While I loved the movie and it can get cold, Minnesota, and in particular Minneapolis, is a wonderful place to visit.
Pros: Great Setting, Service & Food Cons: Be careful about the 3&4 diamond meals !!
Thai Food and Minneapolis – goes together like Laurel and Hardy, Peanut Butter & Jelly, Clinton and Gore. But wait .. have you visited The King and I Thai Restaurant in Downtown Minneapolis ?
Pros: Good beer Cons: Nothing. I love Minnesota... & good, cheap beer.
Fat Cat Lager is brewed in St. Paul, Minnesota. It's a good beer. They make good beer in Minnesota. Minneapolis is unusually hip. Lots of hip people. St. Paul is less hip, but they have better beer.
I travel quite a bit and one of the types of food I look for is BBQ. One item of note is that every region has their own particular style. Some only put sauce on the side. Some smother the meat. Some smoke it, others don't. There are hundreds of...
Pros: Close to Mall of America Cons: Need a car to tour places.
We went on a business trip to Minnesota a couple of years ago. It is a beautiful state with well-planned highways and easily accessible. We stayed in St.Paul.The area we were in was isolated and required quite a bit of traveling to go anywhere. One of...
