Minneapolis is a freaking awesome city in the Midwest, and is better than Chicago with the whole theater
scene and cultural thing. The skyline'
s gorgeous, and the culture is very mixed, with lots of blacks, hispanics, asians, and somalians inhabiting various neighborhoods like riverside, and the west side, etc, even though MN has a rep for being super
white. Not true anymore. There is
gang activity in the wrong parts of town, like Dinkytown and sometimes in North Mpls., but it's a relatively clean, awesome city, with great culture, sports,
people... Minneapolis rocks. And it's way better than boring old Saint Paul.
