"PROTECTED" classes? whose protecting me when i get profiled by police? whose protecting me when im constantly being discriminated, whose protecting me when in my own hood im more likely to experience violence? I know what ur trying to say but fam stop and listen to what your words mean and apply them to the point your trying to make and you will hear how messed up that sounds like. For someone whose visually part of the oppressive demographic to make a statement about the oppressed community and refer to them as protected comes off as offensive disingenuous and belittling. Be better....stay up

What a horrible place to live

King Field the next Berkeley

i attended HU from 1999 to 2001 and lived in that neighborhood the first year (lafond between snelling and fry) and then moved a little bit north to Roseville the 2nd ... great memories -- SKOL!!!!

The discrepancy on google is that there is a Near North neighborhood within the Near North community (like how there's Longfellow neighborhood inside the Longfellow community)

I have been watching your videos for a while now & you make me love MN each time. I am in Georgia & ready to move to MN but I have been having a hard time convincing my mother in law. Any pros I can hit her with to convince her not to let the winters scare her & the benefits for seniors to move to this state.

Im looking at the LaSalle apt in central

Thinking of moving to Rosemount as a single mom with 2 young boys. Anyone that could offer advice would be greatly appreciated ❤

Nerd note. Armatage elementary is no longer a magnet school after they redistricted MPS during covid. It's now the standard elem neighborhood school. And, believe you own the Ineos and I chatted with you at Armatage parking lot a few weeks ago.

Happy people happy state

I just visited with my wife. Did some digging around. From what I've gathered in the short stays I've been around coming from a Texan 1neqrly nobody's car is wrecked. The time I was their I've seen <5 damaged cars on the road. Yall can have a lot of people on the roads but can still keep up with the speed even in "traffic hour". May be different in the city. People here actually use the left lane for passing. Stoplights are synced. The Texas brain here was stopping on green because by the time you get to the next light, it's already red. 2 amazing food shout out to Matt's bar n grille, scratch pizzeria, and off the rails. 3 I liked looking around bloomington it does look like a older area and still keept up. Eagen seams like all the shopping is in one area and the housing is built around it. Apple valley is more spread out and more townhouse feel. Most houses don't have fences so if you want a dog you may want to look at the house your wanting to get.

Minnesota has been by far the best state i have living in, and without beign bias we all know how liberal minnesota is, however the people are incredibly amazing and theres always a place for you weather you are liberal or conservative, the midwest values hold true to its people, if your comming from a denser city like l.a s.f ny, chicago. Dallas, altlanta etc... dont expect much, me do have ecer increasing crime, the leisure landscape is just not there, and the weather is brutal, so if your priority is raising a family in a great environment, culture, and job opportunities, Minnesota can be an amazing place

Minnesota is a liberal cesspool.

Jessy, 4 years ago your videos helped me make the decision, and I now live in Minnesota 😊. It is a great state! Been loving exploring it. I'm happy to rediscover your channel. So inspiring and full of love for this beautiful place.

These guys are the best

Makes me wish I could go back.

Severely underrated video, having lived in Minneapolis my whole life, I 100% agree with everything in this video, life here is amazing and I highly recommend moving here!

I think I'm going to use this video to help explain to people why I'm moving. Thanks for making it easy and maybe I might be able to get some friends to come along with me. Want to also add that the Minnesota Nice=Southern Hospitality connection is so on point

👍

Beautiful city/cities. This would be one of my destinations to live amongst some others in the US that has similar weather to where i live and have live my whole life- Buffalo, NY. Great video i loved the editing, showing the different areas in and around the twin cities.

I vacationed with my family here in October for two weeks, and couldn't get over how well organized, clean, beautiful, and diverse it was along with all the cool shops, restaurants, bars, and architecture. It's a bit pricey, and cold in the winter (I live in Missouri, and have a small farm on 10 acres), but otherwise I'm in love with it! We hung out in St Paul, and Minneapolis.

From California to Texas to now Minnesota. This state is the BEST. I’ve had enough hot sunny days of 100F temps to last a lifetime. Bring on the Minnesotan winter! I’m ready! ❤❄️❤️

Because we are a blue state.

Beatiful picture. Great job!

Did I make it to the comments before Rick from Apple Valley had a chance to spread BS about Minneapolis being sizzled to a crispy desolate wasteland? Nice. Spoiler alert, the cities are actually quite awesome. 🚴

I grew up in the Twin Cities. After college, moved to Boston for a job opportunity. 3 years later, moved to Denver for 2 years, and finally made it back to the Cities in 2006. I agree, best value/quality of life here.

Best video yet! See you in a month! 😊

Thanks for watching, y'all! This was so fun to make. If you know anybody considering a move to Minnesota, do me a huge favor and share this with them.

This looks like a good state

Go to champlin brooklyn park academy

Very informative. I’m from the Pacific Northwest and it seems very similar to Seattle in a lot of ways.

This sounds like a nightmare. Even in WA it wasn't that bad.

I live in bloomington, Mn and I love it. My neighbors are awesome we actually are employed in the same district

U love the color brown don’t you? lol

Have you done a video for homes around $150K?

What's the price point for something like this?

My daughter & her family recently moved from Pasadena CA to Bloomington, where her husband grew up. Bush Lake is part of their backyard. They love MN life!!

Are new builds pretty exclusively in the mid-to-high price points, or has there been any push in builds under $350k? As a despondent FTHB hopeful, I've never even considered new builds because I assume they are out of my price range, but the stubbornness of sellers' and flippers' price points even with 7% interest rates has me wondering if builders smell blood in the water and an opportunity to earn a bigger share of the starter home market.

Thank you so much for your videos! We're planning to move in 1-2 years so I've been binging Minneapolis videos like crazy

Halloween and Christmas lights out would be awesome

If you haven't already, could you do a video on manners and mannerisms? I'm from the south and our manners are a lot different than people in Minnesota

We worked with Jesse as young first time home buyers completely new to the house world, & him & his team are so knowledgeable & great at what they do! I would recommend them to anyone, first time or not. Super great with communication & they truly care about you, & want to make the home buying process as easy as possible. Looking forward to working with them again in the future!! Thanks Jesse!

This looks cool I hope I can get one when I can work in the usa

Great sharing, I love it🙂🙂🙂

Intro too long

Holy snap! That bridge at 0:56 is near where I live! Down the street on the other side of the river. :D 10:00 Orno Lake, oh I haven't been there in so many years, like over 10 years! Wonderful to see it like this. So much had changed since I last went there. 16:43 Oh snap, Marcus Theater was still open. It's been closed down and being renovated right now into something else. Super sad about that. My dad, who is a sign maker and has his own business now, actually created the Marcus and Cinema 17 signs! :D Thank you for this video. While I wish Elk River would've stayed smaller like it was during my youth and teenage years, I still love it here (though technically I live in Otsego, our mail has Elk River on it lol).

Something i would point out in relation to distance and driving times is that the Twin Cities is a very suburban metro so not everyone works in downtown Minneapolis or st Paul, many jobs are located in the suburbs so people commute from one suburb to another which can lead to driving across the metro. When i worked at the st Paul US Bank office a girl was hired in my department and she told me she got a job at the st Paul office cause it was closer to her home in Oakdale in the east metro, before she had worked in the Hopkins west metro office, so she was driving from the east to west metro everyday.

Do Duluth MN🙏🙏🙏

I am slowly falling in love with Minnesota after following your videos and of course being a huge fam of the late and great Prince. 👑
