  Adding on to the land of 10,000 lakes. Wisconsin likes to point fun at our number, 11,842, because their DNR counts them as having 15,084.<br>But, they call just about anything a lake, while Minnesota has standards. In Minnesota, only bodies of water over 10 acres are counted as a lake. If you apply that standard to Wisconsin, they only have 5,898. It really shows just how much water there is here- as well as how far we’ll go to prove we’re superior to Wisconsin.

  I’m a Minnesotan and I thought this was an excellent profile of my state. Even learned a few things too!

  i’m a proud minnesotan and i have to say sure we may have high income tax as well as other taxes but we don’t tax on things we deem necessities such as clothing, food, and medications. i feel like minnesota is a state the rest of the country doesn’t really know about but we have a little bit of everything and we are really welcoming of all kinds of people. really good summary!

  Wow, you did your research! I appreciated all of the cool information! I find it really pretty here, even the flat farmlands, and the winters aren&apos;t so bad once you get used to it and you&apos;ve been through it a couple years, and you wear the right clothing! It&apos;s worth it to wake up to snow falling peacefully in the morning and the icy snow-laden trees are sparkling in the morning sun. From a Minnesotan, thank you and good job!

  Born and raised in Iowa, I regarded my move to Minnesota as a major upgrade. Late in life I moved to Oregon and then to Michigan. They are nice places, but I was delighted to return to where I belong: Minnesota. Thanks for the report and the respect for this state I love.

  I always loved the northernmost Midwestern states. Wisconsin and Michigan are very beautiful too. Cold places breed sensible people, I&apos;ve found.

  The thing I like about the northeast part is the forests and rocks. Generally the breathtaking views are limited, but at a small scale like walking through the woods, you can see how dense, complex, and diverse the forest is. It feels like you’re walking through an enchanted forest.

  Everyone just calls it “cities” here “the cities”
