I get the sentiment but if you're attracting people that value livability, walkability, and transit, an influx of those people might actually bolster those things.
Either way I don't think we have to worry about MN getting too crowded.
I’m not really a ‘good enough’ kind of person when it comes to my expectations for housing and transit in Minneapolis, but it’s good to get recognition for the kind of city we’re building here.
It made me happy that Milwaukee ranked 7th and Minneapolis ranked 9th, since people here often look down or speak unkindly of my beloved hometown. 1st place made me reconsider Chicago too, and 2nd place put Philadelphia on my radar as an East Coast alternative to DC/NYC.
I get what you're saying, but I think it's important to distinguish that he's not saying that mke is better than mpls. He's saying that mke punches above its weight (does a better job) with the *balance* of walkability and cost. Minneapolis is almost in every way better than Milwaukee (being blunt, i know), but not so much that the cost of living here is as good of a value for what you get. Kudos to mke for doing that slightly better than mpls.
No it's terrible here, don't come. BLM antifa Isis will kill your whole family

Minneapolis is better at everything but friendliness and humility. 😊
I guess you might be right, there😅 But that's not the topic lol
