Not the few days I was there. It was virtually spotless. But I'm used to dirtier cities.
Downtown is pretty clean, but there are homeless camps all over the city, and they produce tremendous amounts of litter. Trash lines the highways running through the middle of the city.
From my experiences for nice, clean, well-kept downtown areas (in no particular order): Boston, Charlotte, Orlando, Columbus, Chicago, Minneapolis, Washington DC, Salt Lake City, Phoenix, Denver. There are others, but these come to mind first for me.
You "heard". I love these CD posts, where people with no knowledge of a situation post authoritatively. Yes, Minneapolis is clean.
I don't understand why you're upset. He said he "heard." Let's make this a comfortable forum for everyone. He qualified it as "heard" so he let us know he wasn't coming from a place of authority.

Bottom line: aren't all American inner cities rather unkept relative to Canada or Switzerland? I say the real difference in cleanliness is socioeconomic rather than by metro area.
Every large city has affluent, planned suburbs that are inaccurate. Homeowner's Associations, zoning ordinances, and master planning are the secrets to cleanliness.
The richer a city is, the cleaner it is. People tidy up their neighborhood because if they don't, their property value will go through the floor.
I volunteer my own hometown of Irvine, CA as one of the USA's cleanest cities.
