Please, Minnesota without the Twin Cities is Iowa. Minnesota is nice for nature, peace and quite and dirt roads but I'm a city guy and while the Twin Cities are nice they don't do anything for me and being 6-7 hours away from Chicago is a deal breaker. I would rather live in WI and next to Lake Michigan on days MN is getting blasted with 12inches of snow we're getting rain(see Lake Effect).
I love the reflex Milwaukee defense..."well it may suck here, but at least we're close to Chicago."
Here's a US Department of Education map of high school graduation rates - in response to schools. This is about the states, by the way. I was born in Minnesota, and much prefer WI....the state just has more to offer.

Nobody here really cares about Chicago, We're happy with Minneapolis-St Paul.
I agree with this. The Twin Cities can hold their own rather than bragging about holding onto the jock strap of Chicago.
Minneapolis is also noted for--and it irks me that it's not known much outside the Midwest for this--being very multicultural and all sorts of races dating each other. I've heard from more than one black Milwaukeean that has moved there that, according to the way they put it, "Everyone dates everyone out here."
That's not much the case in Milwaukee. You see it, but its much more rare. Especially with Asians. I pretty much only see them dating each other. Not sure I ever saw an Asian-black couple in Milwaukee.
You can only live in one specific place in a state (unless you have multiple residences) and the Twin Cities are better than any individual place in Wisconsin. I agree that Wisconsin is more well rounded though, Madison, Milwaukee and La Crosse are all pretty cool. Superior, on the other hand, is awful.
I prefer Milwaukee and Madison to the Twin Cities, but can understand why others would prefer the opposite. I think Duluth is underrated, though it's pretty gritty and isolated. Just seems to have real character and there's a downtown that actually feels like a downtown (tweekers and weirdos abound), pretty setting, etc.
Madison and Milwaukee are neat -- also definitely underrated! Hell, most of the Midwest is underrated (except Chicago, which seems to get its fair praise, but God forbit it were on the coast....you'd never hear the end of it!!).
