People Are Fleeing Minneapolis At RECORD-PACE! Five Reasons WHY

Published 2024-01-04
In this video, I effectively explain why people are moving out of Minneapolis at an alarming rate. Minneapolis has been dealing with crime and political duress more than ever before, as a ripple effect of the murder of George Floyd. In this video, I give you real insights as someone who has been living in Minneapolis, and as someone who has personally moved out to the suburbs recently. It comes as no surprise that Minneapolis has seen an uptick in inner-city crime... But interestingly enough the crime rates in MANY of the popular surrounding suburbs has not followed that same trend. I unpack where Minnesotans are moving to when they do choose to leave the State of Hockey. This video is helpful for anyone looking to understand the pros and cons of living in Minnesota vs another state. If you are wondering about the cost of living in Minnesota, we also cover that topic. The goal of this video is to point out some of the downsides of living in Minneapolis, but to also provide clear data so YOU can be the one to decide if these stats are big enough to impact your decision of Moving to Minnesota.

    Greetings from NYC. We've always thought of Minnesota residents as good, hard working, religious, and trusting citizens. My daughter went to school there for four years, and everyone was wonderful to us. I hope you work your way through and recover from these problems. Good luck sirs and ladies.
  • Crime! Friends recently moved their family with three small children out of Minneapolis when a bullet went through their house.

    Uncontrollable crime? Elected officials (and voters by proxy) choosing to allow crime. The exact reason two of my strongly Democratic family members left Minneapolis and St. Paul (one lived near the Floyd event).
  • Remember a year or so ago a dad was driving his son home from baseball practice. Shot in cold blood in front of his son at a light in Plymouth MN, a safe area. BUT MInneapolis has wrecked it for everyone!
  • @C1K450
    Weather and Taxes are the main reasons. Other reasons seem like personal issues.

    Got sold a lie when I moved here, I was told land of 10000 lakes not 10000 potholes. 6 full sets of tires in 2 years chewed up.

    Passive Aggresive/Minnesota Nice attitude is why I consider leaving Minnesota, just never liked that mindset. Also Minneapolis has gone downhill since the 2010's, I used to go to The Quest, Cheapos on Lake Street, Metrodome, Galatic Pizza.....etc those places all of the time but it's just not the same anymore. One positive about Minnesota in addition to transportation is if you're into mountain biking, the scene is growing here.

    Western Wisconsin is very Conservative and more like TX or IA than MN. Those who are retired and live in Ramsey or Hennepin Counties pay the highest income and property taxes in the USA.

    It's cold, and worse than that, the crime is out of control. After the riots, we saw an increase in crime and a decrease in the police force. The schools spend more per capita on each student, BUT the numbers show we are failing. A lot of families leave the district and move to first-tier suburbs.

    I moved to SD from MN because of many reasons. Political? Sure, but it was down on the list. Big reason: they don't build small homes in MN. You have to get a condo, townhome, or family home. If you want small in the Twin Cities, it's gotta be inner city and 100+ years old and in need of renovations (or someone flipped it).
  • @Jamiepunk1
    We need desperately to close our sanctuary status.
  • @user-jl5iu8ee7y
    .Minnesota does not have a school district preforming above 50% any place in the state. 1 Crime 2 Crime 3 high tax's 4 cold.
  • @Jamiepunk1
    Don't forget the people are assholes with a smile on thier face.
  • @Brave2standalone

    Im from the west coast but live in the midwest now. Ive visted Minneapolis quite a few times now. Its definitely not dangerous.

    I do appreciate your efforts in making this video, sincerely, but I beg to differ on the causes cited. Here's my list, based on verifiable research. 1. "Leaders" in the form of politicians, who left all those small business owners abandoned during the riots, and both got voted back in. They STILL haven't gotten reimbursed from the destroyed businesses these leaders allowed to happen. 2. "Defund the police" endorsed by the Mpls city council. 3. 40 year historic lows in the Mpls police force. 4. A DA that refuses to prosecute shoplifting crimes that come in under $1000.00. 5. A town this is AGAIN READY to vote back in the same clowns who have repeatedly proven to save their own political carcasses versus protect the public. Sounds like a place I'd like to walk my baby down the street to school every day now, doesn't it?? If you don't believe me, I encourage you to do your own research.
