My family and I visited the Twin Cities area from May 28 - June 5, 2009. We currently live in Alaska (since 2003) but we are originally from the East Coast (my wife is from Baltimore and I'm from Philly). We had never been to MSP before and quite frankly we didn't know what to expect. We were pleasantly surprise at the friendliness and openness of the people. Being an interracial couple with biracial children, we will occasionally encounter racial animosity (from both blacks and whites). However, with one exception, everywhere we went in the Twin Cities area, we were made to feel welcome and appreciated for our patronage.
In fact, we had such a positive experience that we planning to return sometime this summer (probably late June or early July) for another visit. If this trip is as enjoyable as the first trip, we are seriously considering relocating to the Twin Cities area.
If you are currently living or have previously lived in the Twin Cities area, please feel free to share your experiences and insight.
