That is definitely what I am saying.  Minneapolis is an interesting place because rent&#x2F;home prices are actually more in the suburbs than in the cool parts of the city.  Furthermore, our highways are structured basically so that there are rings of highways that circle around the city.  You can drive for miles on these highways and it is nothing but flat open land with cookie cutter houses and the same shops and strip malls.<p>We do have some big lakes and I can understand why some people like living on lakefront property with boats and whatnot.  However, real estate is so cheap in Minneapolis that it boggles my mind more big companies don&#x27;t open up shop in the city.  Hopefully this is something that will change as time goes on and more people move here.
