Minneapolis is constantly rated as one of the best metropolitan areas in the United States to live in. Buy why? What makes Minneapolis so desirable to potential residents? I'm here to share my opinion, feel free to weigh in/add/comment!
1) The Schools
Among metropolitan areas, Minneapolis is one of the most educated. Minneapolis and St. Paul are home to a number of world renowned institutions, including the University of Minnesota, St. Thomas, Hamline University, and a number of private high schools and colleges.
2) The Jobs
Minneapolis and St. Paul are home to a number of Fortune 500 companies, including Best Buy, Target, General Mills, 3M, etc... Due to the highly educated workforce, companies view Minneapolis and St. Paul as great places to headquarter a company. The Twin Cities also have a thriving small business community (including the one I work for!)
3) The Things to Do
There is always something to do here. Whether its the State Fair, the Renaissance Festival, Valley Fair, numerous farmers markets, the Walker Art Center, the Winter Carnival, etc... there are plenty of opportunities to get out and have fun.
