Minneapolis also isn&#x27;t what it was 20 years ago.  I grew up on the Northside, and it was a pretty economically depressed area still on the decline swing of things.  This included most portions of NorthEast as well.<p>I&#x27;m glad I had the experience, but today the community is far more vibrant.  I think you will see those rent&#x2F;home prices invert rather rapidly as the current first time home buyer generation starts to realize Minneapolis is not the Minneapolis of their parents.<p>I also completely agree re: the soul-soucking nature of Minneapolis suburbia though.  Can&#x27;t imagine a more horrid place for mental health.
