About Minneapolis

Separated by the mighty Mississippi, the Twin Cities are home to over three million people. With a low crime rate, a clean, attractive setting, and plenty of cultural attractions, the Minneapolis area is considered one of the best places in the country to live - harsh winters excepted. The more modern of the Twin Cities, Minneapolis is the proud home of the Metro Dome and a sprawling city-center whose glass and steel skyscrapers seem to reach for the future. The city also boasts the world-famous Minneapolis Institute of Arts and the Guthrie Theater, birthplace of the American Regional professional theater movement. In addition to the Mississippi, the area has numerous bodies of water - Lake Calhoun, Lake Harriet and the Lake of Isles provide plenty of outdoor recreation in the warm and ice-fishing months. The area is also a golfer's paradise, with over 100 public courses within a 45 minutes drive of downtown. For shoppers, the colossal Mall of America offers over 500 stores, plus an amusement park, an aquarium and other attractions. The area is also a hotbed for new music, having produced Prince and alternative legends, The Replacements.

Did you know?

Minneapolis's Old City Hall and Courthouse, located on South Fifth Street, took over 16 years to build. The clock tower reaches a height of more than 340 feet and boasts four clock-faces that are larger than those of London's Big Ben. The building was constructed of pink and purple granite mined in Minnesota, and nearly bankrupted the city before it saw completion in 1905.
