Minneapolis: No one wants to live here

It's a tough day for Minnesota -- first New in Town makes fun of the state, and now real people say they don't want to live here either! 


Minneapolis is at the bottom of the heap of cities where people would like to live, according to a new study from the Pew Research Center. Eighty-four percent of the 2,200 people surveyed say they would NOT like to live here. Only Kansas City, Cincinatti, Cleveland, and Detroit fared worse.


Denver topped the list of preferred cities; 43 percent of people want to live there. Next were San Diego, Seattle and Orlando. Seven of the ten most popular cities were in the West, three in the South. The five least popular cities were in the Midwest.

Ouch. That hurts. Go have a hot dish. Or maybe some lutefisk or spam. You'll feel better.
