It is freezing here sometimes and hot and humid other times. I am a native Minnesotan, I guess I did not realize that I was rude or cold to people. I have lots of friends who are not from here whom I have met through all kinds of venues at all different stages of life. I have always lived in the Twin cities and love Minneapolis, where I live and work now. I love the diversity and the arts and the lakes.

I don't know what people have been saying but it's completely not true. Minneapolis is a cosmopolitan city with people from all over the world. I moved here 4 years ago and I can honestly say it is by far my favorite place I've ever lived. The people are super nice, and very open to outsiders. I believe all the comments you read were about rural Minnesota not Minneapolis.

I 've been here four years now and most people I've met never get used to the winters. It seems to get worse every year. I am also a single parent and I just don't like nor trust the people, no lie. Minnesotans are going to get definsive but they are a bit sheltered. Fake nice ... Yes, it's diverse but segragated as most of the cities in the US. Healthcare is good and there are alot of activities for children.(that's what kept me here) The single life is very borig and lonely especially if you are a woman of color moving here with out family. No lie. NO one else can relate. If you are looking for a place you can call home, this is not it. I am going to move some where with warmer weather and people. Oh, and if you are a renter, watch out for slumlords. 80% of minneapolis landlords are. (it was in the startribune newspaper a few months ago) email me and I can tell you more.
