I say white bear lake. So close to cities. Has a small town feel. Downtown white bear has a farmer market every Thursday in the summer. You can go to cup and cone for socializing. All kinds of different bars and restaurants to go to. And right up hwy 61, you have the auction at the blacksmith. In a very short distance, you have different lakes. And white bear does outside movies, so much fun. What more could you ask for. 😊😊
Good list Brandon and nice of you to include Duluth, but all the TC locations are in Hennepin County. We would love to see your top five in Ramsey County. Thanks
I’ve lived in MN all my life. I love Red Wing, Lake City, Duluth and Grand Marais. Grand Rapids is an honorable mention as the birthplace of the mighty Mississippi. All beautiful locations on the water.
Leave me in Minneapolis. I need to be with my people. I don't want our like the surburb life (even though i currently live in hopkins). I'm currently working on buying a house in Minneapolis where I'm from. A lot of people crack jokes, complain, or let fox news scare them, Minneapolis is beautiful and will always be home, specifically north Minneapolis. Miss me with the gate speech.
I used to deliver appliances around the metro area and I would have to say it Wayzata feels way more luxurious than Minnetonka. Bigger houses definitely
Most cities in Minnesota/twin cities are pretty awesome in their own ways. When I heard top 5 I made my own mental list. Most I came up with were like one town away from yours. I think Hopkins beats st Louis Park. West end is pretty awesome though. I think Plymouth beats Maple grove. Arbor lakes is a lobster trap. You can get in but you can't get out. Delano. Small town simplicity without being too far from civilization, and enough people that there's mostly what you need. Corcoran/Greenfield. If you want land and again, like Delano, not too far from where your job might be. Eden prairie for 1 reason and only one reason Lions Tap. My favorite burger
Plymouth is in my honorable mentions. I love Plymouth but the homes are too expensive. That's my only knock on it. I've only been to Delano once so I dont really know what's out there. Was just in Eden Prairie today doing an open house. I wont dispute that one. Alot of stuff out that way. I will admit that Arbor lakes traffic can be super stupid during busy times of the day, but I'm never there at that time lol!
I'm biased towards the West also. I grew up in Crystal and have lived on this side my whole life.....but that's why I put. disclaimer on the video lol. The southern cities have been interesting me lately though.They have all the good golf courses!
I have lived in Saint Louis Park, Brooklyn Center,Brooklyn Park, Minneapolis, Hopkins, Saint Paul and Woodbury. I want to move to Elk River far enough from city life yet close enough to it
You should look into Dayton, its the next upcoming city. So much outdoor activities with the Park Reserve, the future park development along the Mississippi that's breaking ground next year to include an amphitheater, kayak launch, a trail along the entire river, and so much more in the coming years!
I would not sleep well living in St Louis Park. I work in and around Wayzata. Agreed, though... if you can afford Wayzata, you can live anywhere in Minnesota. There are military contractors located in Wayzata/Plymouth, so I doubt the money will ever stop flowing to there. I would personally choose Orono or Medina, though. Theres where all the professional athletes live. Chaska is another great alternative to Plymouth and Maple Grove. Chaska has an amazing downtown they are currently updating. If you venture to Rogers, Dayton, Corcoran, St Micheals... they are turning into a Maple Grove style city. Cookie cutter nieghborhoods as far as you can see... I personally hate those style of nieghborhoods, but there will be a huge supply of homes there. I love Minnesota, but unless you have a family and a stable job, dont move here. The market is extremely closed, similar to California. Taxes and government spending is geared towards families and exsisting businesses. We dont tax your food or clothing, but we tax the f outta your land and income.
I agree with you on Wayzata. Beautiful place but yes pricey but you get what you pay. 😊 Duluth used to be a great weekend get away from the Cities. Not a long drive, beautiful scenery. But lately they have become like a second "Twin Cities" Maybe call it our triplet.lol. I believe it is full of city folks. cost of staying up there has tripled. I believe it has not become that quick and cheap getaway like it used to be. I agree the south east is a cheaper and just as beautiful.not as ❄️ cold. Red Wing. Lake Pepin. The bluffs. And you get your Wisconsin feel as if you were in Duluth...if needed. IMHO. thanks for your videos.
Yeah Duluth has gotten SOOO expensive. I wanted to go up there for the weekend this winter but man, those air bnbs are expensive now. What city do you live in?
Oh nice! I was just out there this weekend with one of my buyers looking at homes. Wouldn't happen to know anyone in the area thinking about making a move would you?
@@movingtominnesota sorry, no. You know where the golf course here in Blaine is?... Beautiful homes and parks. Well yeah I don't live near that. I am on the other side of Hwy 65..low rent area . 😆
South St Paul is nice Kaposia Park Bro try chromatics Ukrainian deli in the NE. Hennepin Ave., East they have some great sausage and unique food. Also, Emily’s Lebanese deli is awesome.

@@movingtominnesota lemme know if you check it out. Their soy/garlic/Asian inspired flavors (tarantula and kamikaze) are fantastic. My wife loves the Huck Finn (BBQ/Blueberry). Dragon’s Breath and Vaporizer are horseradish fests. They occasionally do a smoked jerk wing which is also quite delightful. You may need to take out a second mortgage-they aren’t cheap-but it is delightful.
My take Duluth - nice to visit in the summer, but that is it. Duluth has one big con and that is the location. It’s kind of isolated for a medium city and the cold, snow, ice plus hilly city? Wayzata - too expensive St Louis park, great city but hard to differentiate between it and Minneapolis sometimes. If you want the quit suburban lifestyle may need to look further. Maple grove - spot on great city Plymouth another great city but homes are pricy. Lake Elmo is a good city in my opinion.
Why nothing in st paul? Roseville, arden hills and new brighton would be great options in ramsey county. For me, i lean more towards hennepin county. Brooklyn park, brooklyn center, crystal, robinsdale new hope and northeast minneapolis are my choices there. Not twin cities would be either st cloud or mankato.
I grew up and still live on the Minneapolis side of the Twin Cities. I dont venture our to Saint Paul often unless its for work. Not to say the cities out there are bad, because they aren't. I personally just dont spend much time that way.
Funny since Rochester several years ago was Money Magazine top in the whole country and still is usually in the top 10. But to many metro "out state" is "out of state" or simply does not exist - so much for the Mayo Clinic and IBM and all the other good things that are evaluated.
Minnesota is really a mixed bag. The arrowhead region and the rest of Minnesota’s far north, the regions around the St. Croix river on the Wisconsin border, and the bluff country and Mississippi River valley in the southeast corner of the state are all cool. The Twin Cities area is miserable and I have never understood why so many swoon over it to the degree that they do. But to each their own, I suppose. Born and raised in the Twin Cities, moved a thousand miles away last year, and I’m glad I did. Never looking back. Minnesota also has one of the highest tax burdens in the country for its citizens as well
@@movingtominnesota I moved to Montana. My family has been here since 1967. I have relatives in Billings and Helena, and my grandmother lives in an assisted living facility in Laurel. It is useful for me to be here and take care of things for my grandmother and on our family's place here, where I now live; a big set of obligations for me. But the choice to move here was 100% my own and one I made with great enthusiasm. I have lived in Bloomington, Shakopee, Jordan, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Eagan, Richfield, and more. I've moved a lot. If my count is right, 14 times in the past 22 years. To be clear, too, I didn't intend to be a hater with my original comment. Just wanted to offer my own perspective as someone who was born and raised and lived in and around the Twin Cities for most of my life and who has been in and around most of the state.
@@HysterS-FTGood luck out there! And I didn’t take your previous comment that way. There are obviously thing’s about Minnesota that are good and bad.

@@movingtominnesota its nothing special in terms of nightlife and entertainment. Rochester is the perfect blend of urban and suburban. Bigger city with a small town character. Low crime, world class healthcare, job opportunities, and affordable cost of living. I recommend it next time you’re in the great state of Minnesota.
Only city he got right is Duluth. All the other ones for bunch of yuppies and I guess more $ for him if anyone actually listens to this video and want to move to one of the cities.
@@movingtominnesota Canterbury park, mystic lake casino, valley fair, one of the rare suburbs that has an old downtown but also newer suburban amenities. It’s massive and growing quickly with luxury neighborhoods. The high school is the second largest in the state. Lot of public tax $ went towards it. In my opinion it has the right characteristics to raise a family while also having non typical entertainment options.
I would advise anyone to not move to MN and leave it. It's a very left leaning state that is in competition with California for taxes and welfare programs. MN also has a fast-growing homeless industry being built to beat San Fransico. MN is trying to break the needle on how far left it can go in regard to politics.

Yea kinda nice in downtown WB
I visited Duluth in december and loved it. i would definitely consider moving up there. it was like going back in time to the 1800's
Duluth is super nice! I was thinking about taking a little weekend trip up there in a few weeks.
St. Paul , Duluth ,Stillwater, Grand Marias and Red Wing. That’s my top five list.
Just posted a Duluth video!
St paul is weak. Everybody knows Minneapolis holds the crown. Miss me with the hate speech.
St. Paul is a failed society
Honestly one of the worst lists I’ve seen 😂😂😂 there is nothing in Stillwater
Love your videos 😊 Never thought to check out Duluth, great idea and option. Thank you!
Thank you! Yeah if you get some time I would definitely take a weekend trip up there!

What’s your opinion on Rochester?
Rochester is about 2 hours away from the Twin Cities and outside of my coverage area, so I dont know much about it at all honestly.
One of my customers urged me to come to Duluth upon relocation. I'd love to visit, but I don't know if I would live there.
Never know. Haha.
I havent been there in a while but its a really nice place to visit at least.
bro why does everybody hate on Minnesota?
I really don’t think they actually hate it as much as tho why say they do. Otherwise why are they watching my video on it? 🤣
Mainly weather, politics and taxes
Ray J’s has fantastic wings, but D-Spot in Oakdale beats them any day of the week.
I haven’t been there but now I have to go and fact check you lol
@@movingtominnesota lemme know if you check it out. Their soy/garlic/Asian inspired flavors (tarantula and kamikaze) are fantastic. My wife loves the Huck Finn (BBQ/Blueberry).

So you only mention cities in the Hennepin county side what about the Ramsey county side
I grew up on this side so I’m going to be biased 😁
Chanhassen/Chaska is the sleeper. Everyone thinks we’re far out but it’s not and we ain’t cookie cutter.
Yeah when you get a little farther out prices get lower for sure. South of the cities are nice areas.
No Rochester?
Believe it or not but I've never been to Rochester....

🤣. I haven’t been there in years lol. The last time I was there though it was fun!
No love for St. Cloud???
Nothing wrong with Saint Cloud! Alot of my friends went to Saint cloud for college. Actually just helped someone moved there from Oregon this Spring.
Like to find a small town like Mayberry to live
Northfield easy choice
What's out there?
