We have over 20 years of experience assisting homeowners in relocating to Minnesota and, in this time, we’ve learned why it’s such a great place to live. We are now passing that information on to you to help you in making your final decision about moving to Minnesota.

Minnesota, also known as The North Star State, has a population of 5.64 million people. Thousands of people make the decision to move to Minnesota every year. There are a variety of reasons that so many choose to relocate to Minnesota. For one, the cost of living in Minnesota is very affordable. Housing prices are generally affordable as well although you should keep in mind that these rates vary from one town to the next. Overall, however, Minnesota is an affordable place to live where you can find the home of your dreams at a rate that doesn’t break the bank.

Another reason that you should consider moving to Minnesota is the fact that it has quickly become more culturally diverse in recent years. The state’s foreign-born population is growing rapidly and this makes for a wonderfully diverse population in the state. In fact, citizens of color are the fastest-growing segment of the state’s population overall.

Although Minnesota is popularly referred to as “The Land of 10,000 Lakes” there are actually 11,842 lakes in The North Star State that are over 10 acres in size. This means that the state of Michigan has more miles of shoreline than even California! This makes for a ton of natural beauty for any outdoorsman to enjoy. Whether you are taking a stroll down Lake Superior’s North Shore or enjoying a swim on Lake Minnetonka, you’ll never run out of outdoor activities to enjoy upon moving to Minnesota.

Finally, it should be said that Minnesota is a state where you will never find yourself out of options for ways to spend the weekend. In fact, Minnesota is known for having a fair or festival for just about any occassion under the sun. From musical festivals and country fairs to car shows and art crawls, there is always something to celebrate and an event to attend in Minnesota. A few of the most popular events for residents to enjoy include the Cinco de Mayo celebration, Minnesota State Fair, and the Minneapolis Aquatennial.

Now that we’ve discussed what it’s like to live in Minnesota as a state overall, it is time to narrow our focus to some of the most popular towns to visit and live within the state. Two of the most popular towns by far for residents and tourists alike include Minneapolis and St. Paul, the state’s capital.

Let’s start by talking about Minneapolis. In general, there are many reasons that one should consider moving to Minneapolis. It is clear that a number of Americans and even those outside of the country have realized this as the population of Minneapolis has increased by 7.4 percent in the five years between 2010 and 2015. This impressive rate of growth stands testament to the fact that there is much to love about life in Minneapolis.

Something that can be said for the residents of Minneapolis overall is that they like to stay fit and enjoy outdoor activities. For this reason, it is fortunate that Minneapolis is a land of green spaces. Within the city’s limits, there are many different parks where residents and tourists alike can spend an afternoon. Picnics are a particularly popular form of recreation in the city itself and you can even reserve a picnic spot for you, your family, and friends whenever you want to host a big gettogether.

Minneapolis, while not as popular for tech industry growth as somewhere like San Francisco, for example, is a city with a rapidly growing tech scene. In fact, Minneapolis ranked as one of the best cities for women in the tech industry according to recent studies by SmartAsset.com. Women, in total, make up just over a quarter of the tech workforce in Minneapolis which, while not necessarily ideal, is a much higher percentage than various other cities in the country.

Some of the most popular neighborhoods to settle down in Minneapolis include Central Minneapolis, North Loop, Linden Hills, Loring Park, Uptown, and Northeast Minneapolis. Each of these neighborhoods come with their own perks and make wonderful places to live for newcomers to the state.

Next, let’s talk a bit more in-depth about life in Minnesota’s capital, St. Paul. Although St. Paul is continuously overshadowed by Minneapolis, this laidback Minnesota city has much to offer newcomers. As of late, St. Paul has been experiencing a much-needed population growth that can be attributed to an influx of culinary, cultural, and entertainment attractions which has drawn many young professionals to the area as of late.

Recently, St. Paul has undergone a revitalization along with its growth in terms of population and this has breathed new life into the city. Much of the city’s recent surge in population can likely be attributed to the fact that St. Paul is home to a “all roads lead downtown” mentality. This is because all of the most popular neighborhoods in the city are clustered around the downtown area. The result of this is great walkability and added value to the surrounding areas in the city.

In terms of the best neighborhoods to live in St. Paul, it really all depends on your budget when moving to Minnesota. Those working with a more stringent budget should consider neighborhoods such as Thomas Dale, Summit Hill, and the North End. Meanwhile, those with a moderate budget should set their sights on neighborhoods such as West Side, Battle Creek, and Midway. Finally, those who don’t have a strict budget may want to consider Highland, Saint Anthony, or Downtown when searching for their new home.
