I live in Ramsey, MN, and what you said about the wild weather fluctuations is so true. It is rare that we get to have Easter egg hunts outside, because we usually have a blizzard. We have been out raking our yard in October and been snowed on. I just went to the store with my kids today in late May; a couple of us were braving shorts, and the others were wearing coats. I have never seen school canceled for snow, but I have seen it canceled for extreme cold.

[@robertmellang6998]

I am 68. I have been here all my life. I am stuck here. Knowing what I know I would not move here.

[@twincitiesminnesotaliving]

No place is perfect, but I'm sorry that you feel stuck. Please reach out if I can ever help you relocate. We are pretty connected all across North America.

I also live here. 54 years. If I hated it, I would have left. Staying forever.

[@twincitiesminnesotaliving]

@@hibbo1351 exactly. Like I said before: no place is perfect but Minnesota has a lot of good to offer

[@warmongerel9743]

Thanks for finally telling some of the truth about Minneapolis. Most KZbinrs usually emphasize what a clean, lovely place with a wonderful skyway system it is. They obviously never get beyond Nicollet Mall/Hennepin Ave. in downtown. The horrible traffic caused by the automobile-hating city council stuffing bike lanes in already narrow streets and mandating a 20 MPH speed limit, the high cost of everything, the insane laws and regulations, the homeless camps that have sprung up everywhere, the trash, the litter, the graffiti, the boarded-up buildings, the violent crime...it's really a Hellhole once you get away from the Potemkin Village of a few square blocks of downtown. I work there every day and my daughter lives just off of Lake Street, so I know of what I speak.

[@twincitiesminnesotaliving]

Hey thanks for the acknowledgment. I've said before: I rather turn somebody away with the truth than impress them with a lie. There's still a lot of good in Minnesota as a whole but Minneapolis has a lot of work to do. Thanks for watching. Reach out when you need help relocating, I'll see if I can bring that same honesty to you

[@hibbo1351]

Minneapolis needs took a double hit with Covid and the Floyd riots. Most of the rest of the Twin cities are great! St Paul is awesome! I live on the East side and my son is about to graduate from Harding. So I know of what I speak. It's hardly a 'hellhole'. So dramatic....sheesh.

[@demetrouse2972]

Thank you for the truth.

[@twincitiesminnesotaliving]

Always. 🙏. I'd rather risk offending someone with the truth, than selling them a lie that sounds more appealing.

[@ARCTICxYETI]

Fun video, thanks man😅

[@twincitiesminnesotaliving]

Thanks brother, I appreciate the support!

[@zenn3339]

There is one thing that will help you get through the Minnesota Winters- and that is marijuana and it's legal now...

[@ktshorty4808]

Every state with alot of water, lakes,ponds and swamps have tons of mosquitos. And they all have a tee shirt with it as their state bird!

[@curtwuollet2912]

Minnesota is great if you stay out of the TC metro. Im a refugee. Small towns are where its at.

[@garyvangelderen5759]

Are great haha governor of Minnesota is retiring, he's moving to South Dakota,what does that tell you?? If you want to pay taxes, come to Minnesota.

[@bradvincet1848]

After the 2020 riots, I crossed the TCs off my list. Not to mention, Minnesota is another state being ruled by a blue city.

[@foundinminnesota]

The Timberwolves are doing well and could end up winning it all this year. Just sayin.. haha :)

[@twincitiesminnesotaliving]

It has absolutely come back to bite me in the butt!! Who would have thought after all these years I would get it wrong, lol. Trust me I'm hoping they actually pull through. :-)

Same! No place is perfect, but Minnesota is pretty great

[@scottb2926]

That T-wolves comment is aging as well as spoiled milk.

[@twincitiesminnesotaliving]

Haha, I still stand by it, the season isn't over yet! Although yes it is comical to see me wrong.

[@bruce2270]

I know you do this for viewers but most of what you said was pure bullshit

[@warmongerel9743]

That's weird. I was born here and I don't find any of it wrong. Other than he didn't emphasize what a dump Minneapolis is enough.

[@jasonknight5863]

He is totally right on the money with the topics he covered. We unfortunately lived there for 17 years(15 owning a home) in the Northern Twin Cities Suburbs. And it would snow weeks before Halloween 🎃 most of the time. Then only in late May would it go away finally. After breaking my back ( and discs) all winter 🥶 long. Then June it would rain most of the month. Recently in the “summer” of a few short months you would see and smell the Canadian Wildfires most of the summer to totally take any small amount of positives away from living in Minnesota. And it seems to happen every year now with regularity. There is a lot more negative than positive than living there in MinneSnowda. We would never go back to it again. I have lived all over the world. And it’s the most miserable place to live. I think my time in Philadelphia and Chicago was better….and that ranked very low on the scale from my family and I. At least the winters were not as long there.

[@rayallan8238]

Not only is what he said true, he isn't even scratching the surface. He's being kind, I can't find a single quality the state of MN has that makes the rest of the BS worth even considering. Hotdish? Please....

[@jasonknight5863]

Finally the truth on living in Minnesota. The Karen like Passive aggressive attitude that prevails everywhere did it for us to move. The City was called on us because we went on a vacation to Panama for 2 weeks. The lawn grass grass grew 1 inch longer than “city code” allows and both the cops 👮 came to the door banging on it and demanded us to come out. (We had cameras and asked via internet connection what they needed) Then the city was called on us that if we don’t now the yard within a few days that they would do it and we pay for it. Another time again both were called on us because we planted a tree 6 to 7 feet from the road and was told to move it back to 13.75 feet because that was for everyone to use and not allowed in the suburban neighborhood we lived. We owned 2 acres that went in deep. The mosquitoes 🦟 we had to spray for every week otherwise we would be attacked. Only could do it every 2 weeks. $$$$ Then state income taxes we paid an additional $360,000 over the 15 years we lived there. We could have bought another smaller house In florida for that outright. This was 2021 …With Zero Income taxes. So that and the rude neighbors we didn’t know anything of them for 15 years except at the end when our next door neighbor invited us to move their heavy cabinet from the living room to their kitchen was all the interaction we received…. After he screamed at me because once our puppy wandered over to “their” side, and pooped. 🙄 I always clean it up. passive aggressive to the next level everyone was! We had lived in the Northern Suburbs of Illinois before we made the mistake of moving there. We moved to florida after gaining only a lousy $60 k on appreciation in 15 years on our $500,000 house that we bought there in Minnesota. Which paid for the move to Florida. Having seen way less snakes than in Minnesota. No Gators in 3 years. 95 % less Mosquitoes 🦟 in Central Florida. And California like winters. We are so happy with our move to Florida. The people are so much happier always and friendly (true friendly). The taxes don’t eat us alive. And our home has appreciated $300,000 in 3 short years. So we wish we came down to florida much earlier than we did.

[@hibbo1351]

Wow, this was almost like free therapy. Cool about the 5 week abortion laws down in those welfare states. Nice....Now Florida women have to drive 900 miles if they want to get the dead fetus out of their body. Enjoy your equity! We can ALL relate to buying a $500k house too! Poor thing....

[@rayallan8238]

You've experienced MN "Nice" means nice to your face and talk smack and gossip behind your back. My experience was having a neighbor getting the police called over a cat crossing her yard. That poor guy eventually went to jail, over a cat. I can't get out of MN fast enough, taking the whole family. Leadership has changed, laws have changed, the demographic has changed, and they've changed the flag. MN we knew a few years ago doesn't exist anymore. Get out while you can.

[@jasonknight5863]

@@rayallan8238 absolutely 👍🏼 my wife was terrified of the Police as they are bullies and akin to Robocop. All the Police are absolutely wonderful down here in Florida and they take care of the real crime. Absolutely Minnesota Nice is a byword for they talk behind your back and are super passive aggressive, Karen’s. The routinely clog up the NextDoor neighborhood app we had in our old neighborhood telling people passive aggressively what side of the road they should walk. What time they should turn off their lights, all this in non HOA neighborhoods. It’s absolutely mind blowing that Minnesotans want everyone to do what they should do because a Karen said so. Get out while you can because it’s like living in a Prison in that state. I don’t miss going to the mailbox in the 9 month winter and freezing my eyeballs either and in “summer” having to with Canadian wildfires blanketing the state with smoke. 💨

[@jasonknight5863]

@@rayallan8238 a cat 🐈 crossing her yard. Unbelievable! Why am I not surprised! 😮 that’s Minnesota for you. Meanwhile the crime is beyond control and people can burn down buildings down town in the riots and get away with it too.

[@hibbo1351]

@@rayallan8238 Thanks for the zero-context jail cat story. It means nothing at all to me. The flag upsets you? So LEAVE already. I'm not going anywhere. What greener grass are you pursuing?
