Yeahhh, exactly. I’ve been all over the country, and I definitely think Minneapolis is one of the more well-maintained cities. Our roads can struggle, but that’s really because they can’t be maintained for half of the year! I’m not saying our tax system is perfect here, but at least it reflects in that regard!

Edina is an excellent spot, some of the best schools in metro area, but comes with a high price tag. New Brighton is another affordable suburb with very good schools.

Minneapolis is the bold, strong, and showy twin built on the heights and challenging the world. Saint Paul is the older, quieter, more intelligent twin, hiding in the draw. I love the twin cities; I love both of them. They each have their own personalities and they are beautiful and vibrant and quirky. The winter is brutal but the apartments have underground parking and you can travel from building to building without ever going outside. Besides, the Saint Paul Winter Carnival is a blast. I can back the dude up on the pain of being a Vikings fan, and don't even get me started on the pain of watching the Northstars being ripped away. When the Mall of America went up I hated it. It's so big that it's very difficult to navigate. But once you learn how, you can pretty much get anything imaginable there. It ended up being my go-to for quick shopping. One thing that I found particularly attractive about the cities were the religious architecture. Right by the sculpture garden in Minneapolis is the Basilica. It is absolutely gorgeous in there. You gotta see it. And once you think you've never seen anything so beautiful, go check out the cethedral in Saint Paul. I'm not a religious man myself, but you can't be anything but inspired there.

You alluded to, but glossed over a very important thing. The Twin Cities are a corporate dynamo, with the headquarters of 16 Fortune 500 Corporations and tens of thousands of well-paying management jobs. Only a handful of American cities can claim similar stats. (Indeed, there are more Fortune 500 Corporations in the Twin Cities than there are in Los Angeles). The World's largest private corporation is headquartered there (Cargill). The World's 8th largest corporation is also headquartered there (United Health). (Hello, United Health is twice the size of Microsoft for comparison) Everyday brands like Best Buy, Target, General Mills, Polaris, 3M, US Bank and Land O Lakes are headquartered there. That's a major reason why the Twin Cities are so affluent. That's why MSP Airport is the 3rd largest hub of Delta Airlines. Don't discount the influence of major corporations.

4:19 The bridge pictured is actually the Stone Arch Bridge, it used to be a railroad bridge but now it's only open to bikes and pedestrians. Hennepin Avenue Bridge is actually two bridges north of the stone arch about 3/4 of a mile away. The Central Avenue Bridge, St. Anthony Falls lock and dam also lie between the two, though the lock system has been closed for years to mitigate the migration of invasive species north of the falls. The area is now the furthest north you can traverse along the Mississippi river by water from the delta in Louisiana without having to remove you boat from the water

Pros: 1- Quality of life 2 - Sports 3 - Music 4 - Park system 5 - Nature 6 - Schools+Universities 7-Decent city response to winter/inclement weather 8-Labor/job market 9-Healthcare 10-Arts (kinda?) 11- Intl Airport 12- ok avg. pay 13- ok nightlife Cons: 1-Crime/Lawlessness 2-Bad vibes in noticeable portions of city 3-Weather --- let me say it again -- WEATHER (HUMID/HOT + BONE SHATTERiNG COLD) 4-Sports (enjoy misery but at least u get all major sports) 5-Nature (no ocean,or mtns ) 6-Mosquitos 7-Taxes 8-Unusually high rent/homes for being a mid-sized northern midwest city. Like... why? 10-Road conditions (ice or put holes) /construction summers 11-not close to any (desirable) major city? Chicago is closest at 6hr drive time -- but at least coastal flights are 3hrs every time. 12- Bland foods (MN is adverse to spices in meals) 13 - No legalization of weed... MSP is a decent area to settle down and have a family but if im young/single or young couple -- unless u have family here or close by -- go elsewhere. The majority ppl in MN who come back after leaving do so because of family/friends. The pros/cons are quite even, but kin/friends push it over the top. If u have no real connection/roots here.. no way id pick it over Denver or another major city. Its FOR SURE better than Chicago tho--No doubt about it. I think MSP is the jewel of the midwest... not sure thats saying much tho

I agree with everything here, especially the bit about not having family or friends here.

@ToTheTwinCities4 жыл бұрын
Hey! I fell asleep while responding to this the other night! My bad. Haha. So first I want to speak to the protests (not just for you, but for everybody who might read this). I see and hear a lot of people (not from the twin cities) who think the twin cities are in chaos. It’s not even close. We had two days with rioting, and LOTS of peaceful protests. But literally the day after the protests there were so many people out helping and in a day it was clean. And overall the vibe is one of positive change, and in the heart of the city it’s almost more peaceful than before all of this. I can only speak to my experience and research I can do, but I do feel like the city is very Latinx friendly. In general the metro is growing more and more diverse and it’s generally a very liberal area. According to a census, the Hispanic population has grown by 20% over the state and certain counties in the metro are upwards of 30% growth! Disclaimer: I’m not a lawyer and this isn’t legal advice. Hahaha. From what I have researched, weed was largely decriminalized, still not legal, but it most cases possession of less that 1.5 ounces, is a misdemeanor. So ticket or fine or whatever. I do think it’s becoming more lax and I would be surprised if we weren’t one of the next states to legalize. Hope that is helpful and I keep the questions coming!

Depends where you're at but generally a studio or 1 bdrm will run you 875 ish to 1k. Thing is if you look around you can find a good job. I make roughly $20-28/hr with my tipped job. Just gotta look and put in the effort. I love it here.

I haven't been to MSP, but from your videos it looks like MSP's inner city areas are cleaner than other US downtowns. Is the mosquito problem in MSP as bad as it is in Florida or New Orleans? I spent a summer near New Orleans, one of the muggiest if not the muggiest city in America, and I'm sure MSP summers are nice compared to the Gulf Coast. I'm also surprised that recreational weed isn't legal in Minnesota, which is supposedly a very blue state.
@ToTheTwinCities3 жыл бұрын
I think our mosquitos up north here might be worse, and while our weather can get muggy, it’s nowhere near as bad as the likes of Florida or New Orleans!

Before 2022, the MN House and Senate were split. But Democrats now have control of both, so expect the legal staus of weed to change soon.

I moved here, left then moved back. Spent total of 10-11 years here & leaving for good shortly. Everywhere else Ive lived Ive made friends & felt part of the community in some way. Not so much here. They are EXTREMELY clicky, & dont let anyone tell you it isnt so. Unless you have a particular group or org that you plan to affiliate with to build connections do not expext the average homegrown Minnesotan to be anything but superficial 'nice' to you, which is what this state is known for.

This video was the first video of this vlogger suggested in my video feed this morning and makes me sad that I can't afford to buy a home, cause he seems awesome. Not only areas are usually extremely pet friendly, apartment buildings mid and high amenity luxury apartments usually are also pet friendly with pet amenities like doggie spas (dog wash stations) and designated pet spots both in downtown and other parts of minneapolis and the suburbs for those who need to rent before being able to buy. Hopefully it will hope though Jesse, if people on social medial when they ask me about info about the Twin Cities (especially Minneapolis as I lived in Downtown up until 13 months ago) and are looking to buy a home, I'll forward them to this channel ...

My wife and I are looking at this area even though we don't know anyone here because our daughter was recently diagnosed with Autism and we've heard Minnesota has some of the best Autism resources in the country, anyone know if that's true? We currently live in Bakersfield CA, I fear my wife (and maybe me too) will have a rough transition from 40-110 dry weather to the Twin Cities weather, but we rarely actually get to take advantage of the sunny blue skies here because the air quality is so awful, I also hear the air quality in the twin cities is some of the best among major US cities, anyone can confirm that too? How many months of the year would you say the weather is actually nice enough to want to spend time outside in it? Lastly, are the more diverse areas of town nice areas? I'm a white man married to a black women with a mixed autistic daughter, seems likely my daughters life will be hard enough with her autism, I'd hate to move her into a situation where she also has being the only dark skinned child in all her classes to contend with. Oh, and to Jesse, great video, thanks for making it, we're not yet sure if we're going to move (as there are some autism resources in our area) but if your still working as a realitor, you'll be at the top of my list of people to check in with.

Minnesotans can be pretty racist in my opinion. It’s also a very segregated state. Autism will continue to be better understood so I wouldn’t really factor that in too much. I would look into Denver if I were you personally.
