Minnesota (i/mɪnᵻˈsoʊtə/; locally[ˌmɪnəˈso̞ɾə]) is a state in the Midwestern United States. Minnesota was admitted as the 32nd state on May 11, 1858, created from the eastern half of the Minnesota Territory. The name comes from the Dakota word for "clear blue water". Owing to its large number of lakes, the state is informally known as the "Land of 10,000 Lakes". Its official motto is L'Étoile du Nord (French: Star of the North).
Minnesota is the 12th largest in area and the 21st most populous of the U.S. States; nearly 60 percent of its residents live in the Minneapolis–Saint Paulmetropolitan area (known as the "Twin Cities"), the center of transportation, business, industry, education, and government and home to an internationally known arts community. The remainder of the state consists of western prairies now given over to intensive agriculture; deciduous forests in the southeast, now partially cleared, farmed and settled; and the less populated North Woods, used for mining, forestry, and recreation.
Minnesota State University, Mankato (MSU or MNSU), also known as Minnesota State, is a public comprehensive university located in Mankato, Minnesota. The university sits atop the bluff of the Blue Earth River valley, approximately 75 miles (121km) southwest of Minneapolis-St. Paul. Founded as Mankato Normal School in 1868, it is the second oldest member of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities System. It is also the second largest public university in the state and has over 115,000 alumni worldwide. It is the most comprehensive of the seven universities and is referred to as the flagship of the Minnesota State Universities and Colleges system. It is an important part of the economy of South-Central Minnesota as it adds more than $452 million to the economy of Minnesota annually.
Minnesota State offers 140 undergraduate programs of study, 80 graduate programs and 4 doctoral programs. Students are served by 750 full-time faculty members creating a 21:1 student to faculty ratio. In addition to the main campus, it operates two satellite campuses: one in the Twin Cities suburb of Edina and the other in Owatonna. Through the College of Extended Learning it provides bachelor's degrees at the Normandale Partnership Center and programs online through an online campus.
Minnesota wine refers to wine made from grapes grown in the U.S. state of Minnesota. Minnesota is part of the largest American Viticultural Area (AVA), the Upper Mississippi Valley AVA, which includes southwest Wisconsin, southeast Minnesota, northeast Iowa, and northwest Illinois. The state also has a smaller designated American Viticultural Areas, the Alexandria Lakes AVA. Minnesota is a very cold climate for viticulture and many grapevarieties require protection from the winter weather by being buried under soil for the season. Minnesota is home to extensive research on cold-hardy French hybrid and other grape varieties.
The Minnesota Grape Growers Association (MGGA) is a statewide organization that promotes grape growing and wine making in the state and also in cold-hardy climates. Minnesota is home to the International Cold Climate Wine Competition (ICCWC) hosted annually by a partnership between MGGA and University of Minnesota. This is the only wine competition solely dedicated to the promotion of quality wines made mainly from cold-hardy grape varieties. In 2014, the 6th annual competition saw 284 wines entered from 59 commercial wineries in 11 states. Awards were based on blind tastings by 21 expert judges, who include enologists, wine writers, restaurateurs, retailers, and wine educators.
The Minnesota River is a tributary of the Mississippi River, approximately 332 miles (534km) long, in the U.S. state of Minnesota. It drains a watershed of nearly 17,000 square miles (44,000km2), 14,751 square miles (38,200km2) in Minnesota and about 2,000sqmi (5,200km2) in South Dakota and Iowa.
It rises in southwestern Minnesota, in Big Stone Lake on the Minnesota–South Dakota border just south of the Laurentian Divide at the Traverse Gap portage. It flows southeast to Mankato, then turns northeast. It joins the Mississippi south of the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, near the historic Fort Snelling. The valley is one of several distinct regions of Minnesota. Of Dakota language origin, the name Minnesota means "sky-tinted water or cloudy-sky water", from mní (often transcribed as "minne" or "mini") meaning "water" and sóta meaning "sky-tinted" or "cloudy sky", and, refers to the milky-brown color its waters take on when at flood stage. An illustration of the meaning of these words was shown by dropping a little milk into water. For over a century prior to the organization of the Minnesota Territory in 1849, the name St. Pierre (St. Peter) had been generally applied to the river by French and English explorers and writers. Minnesota River is shown on the 1757 edition of Mitchell Map as "Ouadebameniſsouté [Watpá Mnísota] or R. St. Peter". On June 19, 1852, acting upon a request from the Minnesota territorial legislature, the United States Congress decreed the aboriginal name for the river, Minnesota, to be the river’s official name and ordered all agencies of the federal government to use that name when referencing it.
HIDDEN ERROR: Usage of "Occupation?s?" is not recognized
Minnesota was a Eurodancegroup formed in Germany. It was created by Thomas Allison and Ralf Kappmeier, two German producers. They released two singles, their first was "What's Up", a cover of the 4 Non Blondes song. It peaked at number 22 on the Swiss Singles Chart and reached number one on the RPM Dance Chart in Canada. Their second single, "Without You" peaked at number 39 on the Swiss Singles Chart.

I talk about the physical landscape, natural scenery and climate as well as human aspects of geography to include cities, population growth trends, economic indicators, industry, agriculture, ethnic groups, culture, food and more. If you've ever wondered about the North Star State (or even if you haven't) this is the video for you.

Minnesota is a state filled with a variety of things to see and do. From the state being known as the North Star State to being the inventor of the first "mall" in America (and subsequently the largest "mall" in America). Minnesota has a ton of great places to visit. It doesn't stop at just the Twin Cities. There's so much to see and explore in the Land of 10,000 Lakes.
If you are asking yourself why visit Minnesota? We'll have you covered with all of our favorite cities, landmarks (like the Split Rock Lighthouse), state parks and several secret places along the way that aren't filled with tourists (sorry, Mall of America).

So you want to know the Pros & Cons of Living in Minnesota? We’ve got a lot of awesome things to be proud of and we also have some things that are not so good.
Let’s start with one of the biggest Cons of living in Minnesota…the Winters…the temperatures get so cold at times that it makes you want to cry.
The next Con of living in Minnesota is the Summer Road Construction…since the weather is pretty cold for a good portion of the year our fellow Road Construction heroes only have a brief period of time to fix the damage that was caused by the winter.
Con number three would have to be the Mosquitos and a close second, the black flies. Now the mosquitos are most likely going to be number one on most people’s lists, but I find they can be managed much easier in the Twin Cities Metro. Some of the suburbs treat the high-prone areas where they hatch so the mosquito numbers are much less compared to areas that they don’t treat like areas outside of the metro.
Con number 4 is the fact that we get let down a lot from our Minnesota Sports teams… whether you’ve been a fan of the Vikings, Twins, Timberwolves, Wild, and a few others…there’s a good chance that you’ve been let down.
Con number 5 is that our terrain is mostly flat and if you like to downhill ski you won’t be too impressed with our ski hills in Minnesota. We’ve got a few nice options to practice on, but if you’re used to skiing in the mountains, you’re going to be let down.
Okay, enough of the Cons…let’s move on to the Pros and what makes Minnesota an awesome place to live!
Number 1 is the people…Overall, you find very friendly people in Minnesota. I’m sure you’ve heard of Minnesota nice…and it’s pretty true. Of course, there are always some bad eggs, but you’ll mostly find that people are polite, willing to help strangers, smile as you walk by, pleasant in their conversations, and overall friendly. If your neighbor knows you’re on vacation or your snowblower is down they won’t hesitate to blow your driveway for you.
Pro number two is the abundance of outdoor activities. As you may know, we are considered the land of 10,000 Lakes, but we actually have more than that number. So as you would imagine we have plenty of water activities for you to enjoy. Boating, canoeing, water skiing, fishing, swimming, skating, snowmobiling, and ice fishing to name a few. We also have some pretty awesome camping options as well as mountain biking, hiking, trail running, and cross-country skiing. There is also something about that fresh Minnesota air.
Pro number three is that we have a strong job market in Minnesota. We have a low unemployment rate and many Fortune 500 Companies that call Minnesota home. For example, we have, Target, United Health Group, 3M, Best Buy, General Mills, and Land O’ Lakes to name a few. The median income is also higher than the majority of our other states. So if you want to work you’ll be able to find a job!
Pro number four is our Quality Health Care System. Minnesota is home to the world-renown Mayo Clinic along with many other quality options. People fly in from all over the world to be treated by these quality institutions, so you’re in good hands here.
Pro number 5 is the overall Quality of Life here. We’ve got a great educational system with over 200 colleges and universities and wonderful options for grade school, middle schools, and high schools. Minnesota is frequently ranked as one of the most literate states in the US. We’ve also got a fairly laid-back feel when it comes to our day-to-day living. When it comes to roads we have a well-designed highway network especially compared to other major cities…and if we get a huge snowstorm, we’ve got a large deployment of snowplows that will treat the roads and clear snow so you can be on your way safely. Just remember to slow down, have good tires, and give some space between vehicles on those snowy or icy days.
Pro number 6 is the music scene is one of the best in the country. Minnesota is home to Bob Dylan, Prince, The Replacements, and one of my favorites Trampled By Turtles. We also have a legendary music venue First Avenue where some of the best musicians have played their hearts out.
Okay, now for one of my favorite pros of Minnesota. It kind of has to do with the outdoor activities that I mentioned before…It’s the Boundary Waters Area of northern Minnesota and the Superior Hiking trail system north of Duluth.

Con number three would have to be the Mosquitos and a close second, the black flies. Now the mosquitos are most likely going to be number one on most people’s lists, but I find they can be managed much easier in the Twin Cities Metro. Some of the suburbs treat the high-prone areas where they hatch so the mosquito numbers are much less compared to areas that they don’t treat like areas outside of the metro.
Con number 4 is the fact that we get let down a lot from our Minnesota Sports teams… whether you’ve been a fan of the Vikings, Twins, Timberwolves, Wild, and a few others…there’s a good chance that you’ve been let down.
Con number 5 is that our terrain is mostly flat and if you like to downhill ski you won’t be too impressed with our ski hills in Minnesota. We’ve got a few nice options to practice on, but if you’re used to skiing in the mountains, you’re going to be let down.
Okay, enough of the Cons…let’s move on to the Pros and what makes Minnesota an awesome place to live!
Number 1 is the people…Overall, you find very friendly people in Minnesota. I’m sure you’ve heard of Minnesota nice…and it’s pretty true. Of course, there are always some bad eggs, but you’ll mostly find that people are polite, willing to help strangers, smile as you walk by, pleasant in their conversations, and overall friendly. If your neighbor knows you’re on vacation or your snowblower is down they won’t hesitate to blow your driveway for you.
Pro number two is the abundance of outdoor activities. As you may know, we are considered the land of 10,000 Lakes, but we actually have more than that number. So as you would imagine we have plenty of water activities for you to enjoy. Boating, canoeing, water skiing, fishing, swimming, skating, snowmobiling, and ice fishing to name a few. We also have some pretty awesome camping options as well as mountain biking, hiking, trail running, and cross-country skiing. There is also something about that fresh Minnesota air.
Pro number three is that we have a strong job market in Minnesota. We have a low unemployment rate and many Fortune 500 Companies that call Minnesota home. For example, we have, Target, United Health Group, 3M, Best Buy, General Mills, and Land O’ Lakes to name a few. The median income is also higher than the majority of our other states. So if you want to work you’ll be able to find a job!
Pro number four is our Quality Health Care System. Minnesota is home to the world-renown Mayo Clinic along with many other quality options. People fly in from all over the world to be treated by these quality institutions, so you’re in good hands here.
Pro number 5 is the overall Quality of Life here. We’ve got a great educational system with over 200 colleges and universities and wonderful options for grade school, middle schools, and high schools. Minnesota is frequently ranked as one of the most literate states in the US. We’ve also got a fairly laid-back feel when it comes to our day-to-day living. When it comes to roads we have a well-designed highway network especially compared to other major cities…and if we get a huge snowstorm, we’ve got a large deployment of snowplows that will treat the roads and clear snow so you can be on your way safely. Just remember to slow down, have good tires, and give some space between vehicles on those snowy or icy days.
Pro number 6 is the music scene is one of the best in the country. Minnesota is home to Bob Dylan, Prince, The Replacements, and one of my favorites Trampled By Turtles. We also have a legendary music venue First Avenue where some of the best musicians have played their hearts out.
Okay, now for one of my favorite pros of Minnesota. It kind of has to do with the outdoor activities that I mentioned before…It’s the Boundary Waters Area of northern Minnesota and the Superior Hiking trail system north of Duluth.

Minnesota is a state filled with a variety of things to see and do. From the state being known as the North Star State to being the inventor of the first "mall" in America (and subsequently the largest "mall" in America). Minnesota has a ton of great places to visit. It doesn't stop at just the Twin Cities. There's so much to see and explore in the Land of 10,000 Lakes.
If you are asking yourself why visit Minnesota? We'll have you covered with all of our favorite cities, landmarks (like the Split Rock Lighthouse), state parks and several secret places along the way that aren't filled with tourists (sorry, Mall of America).

ℹ️ LET'S CONNECT🙋🏻♂️
The link below will take you to all of my social media.
https://instacard.co/Darin-Bjerknes/home
So you want to know the Pros & Cons of Living in Minnesota? We’ve got a lot of awesome things to be proud of and we also have some things that are not so good.
Let’s start with one of the biggest Cons of living in Minnesota…the Winters…the temperatures get so cold at times that it makes you want to cry.
The next Con of living in Minnesota is the Summer Road Construction…since the weather is pretty cold for a good portion of the year our fellow Road Construction heroes only have a brief period of time to fix the damage that was caused by the winter.
Con number three would have to be the Mosquitos and a close second, the black flies. Now the mosquitos are most likely going to be number one on most people’s lists, but I find they can be managed much easier in the Twin Cities Metro. Some of the suburbs treat the high-prone areas where they hatch so the mosquito numbers are much less compared to areas that they don’t treat like areas outside of the metro.
Con number 4 is the fact that we get let down a lot from our Minnesota Sports teams… whether you’ve been a fan of the Vikings, Twins, Timberwolves, Wild, and a few others…there’s a good chance that you’ve been let down.
Con number 5 is that our terrain is mostly flat and if you like to downhill ski you won’t be too impressed with our ski hills in Minnesota. We’ve got a few nice options to practice on, but if you’re used to skiing in the mountains, you’re going to be let down.
Okay, enough of the Cons…let’s move on to the Pros and what makes Minnesota an awesome place to live!
Number 1 is the people…Overall, you find very friendly people in Minnesota. I’m sure you’ve heard of Minnesota nice…and it’s pretty true. Of course, there are always some bad eggs, but you’ll mostly find that people are polite, willing to help strangers, smile as you walk by, pleasant in their conversations, and overall friendly. If your neighbor knows you’re on vacation or your snowblower is down they won’t hesitate to blow your driveway for you.
Pro number two is the abundance of outdoor activities. As you may know, we are considered the land of 10,000 Lakes, but we actually have more than that number. So as you would imagine we have plenty of water activities for you to enjoy. Boating, canoeing, water skiing, fishing, swimming, skating, snowmobiling, and ice fishing to name a few. We also have some pretty awesome camping options as well as mountain biking, hiking, trail running, and cross-country skiing. There is also something about that fresh Minnesota air.
Pro number three is that we have a strong job market in Minnesota. We have a low unemployment rate and many Fortune 500 Companies that call Minnesota home. For example, we have, Target, United Health Group, 3M, Best Buy, General Mills, and Land O’ Lakes to name a few. The median income is also higher than the majority of our other states. So if you want to work you’ll be able to find a job!
Pro number four is our Quality Health Care System. Minnesota is home to the world-renown Mayo Clinic along with many other quality options. People fly in from all over the world to be treated by these quality institutions, so you’re in good hands here.
Pro number 5 is the overall Quality of Life here. We’ve got a great educational system with over 200 colleges and universities and wonderful options for grade school, middle schools, and high schools. Minnesota is frequently ranked as one of the most literate states in the US. We’ve also got a fairly laid-back feel when it comes to our day-to-day living. When it comes to roads we have a well-designed highway network especially compared to other major cities…and if we get a huge snowstorm, we’ve got a large deployment of snowplows that will treat the roads and clear snow so you can be on your way safely. Just remember to slow down, have good tires, and give some space between vehicles on those snowy or icy days.
Pro number 6 is the music scene is one of the best in the country. Minnesota is home to Bob Dylan, Prince, The Replacements, and one of my favorites Trampled By Turtles. We also have a legendary music venue First Avenue where some of the best musicians have played their hearts out.
Okay, now for one of my favorite pros of Minnesota. It kind of has to do with the outdoor activities that I mentioned before…It’s the Boundary Waters Area of northern Minnesota and the Superior Hiking trail system north of Duluth.

🥒 ABOUT BEFRS:
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but currently call Vietnam home. I’ve been living in Asia for 10 years and started making food and travel videos to document my experiences. I travel to different parts of the world, hunting down and documenting the most unique food each country has to offer.
If you see any factual food errors in my videos, please feel free to politely let me know in the comments. I'm a huge fan of trying different, interesting foods in each country. My show is from a Western point of view, but more importantly, MY point of view. It is not meant to offend any person or culture.

Minnesota (i/mɪnᵻˈsoʊtə/; locally[ˌmɪnəˈso̞ɾə]) is a state in the Midwestern United States. Minnesota was admitted as the 32nd state on May 11, 1858, created from the eastern half of the Minnesota Territory. The name comes from the Dakota word for "clear blue water". Owing to its large number of lakes, the state is informally known as the "Land of 10,000 Lakes". Its official motto is L'Étoile du Nord (French: Star of the North).
Minnesota is the 12th largest in area and the 21st most populous of the U.S. States; nearly 60 percent of its residents live in the Minneapolis–Saint Paulmetropolitan area (known as the "Twin Cities"), the center of transportation, business, industry, education, and government and home to an internationally known arts community. The remainder of the state consists of western prairies now given over to intensive agriculture; deciduous forests in the southeast, now partially cleared, farmed and settled; and the less populated North Woods, used for mining, forestry, and recreation.
