Minneapolis, Chicago, OR New york City?

lived in chicago and it was nice but id perfer new york because it has good colleges and its bigger.

Well all of them are very populated, Minneapolis being the least and New York City the most. But if you like people then go to New York, however it is expensive. Minneapolis is the least expensive, Chicago is OK. If you want to see the scenery and the buildings go to Chicago or New York. All of the cities experience high amounts of snowfall, so if you want the least amount of snowfall, Chicago is the place. If you like lakes, then go to Chicago. :P New York is pretty much packed with people 24/7, if you want a quieter scene, go to Minneapolis. However, Minneapolis is prone to tornadoes and has the most severe weather. Good Luck! :)

I've lived all over the twin cities. Mostly south suburbs. The best area in Minnesota rural area in my experience is South Minneapolis for appearances, St. Paul for actual homey type.. its not super clean from my experience but yeah.. I'm from Lakeville Minnesota.. minneapolis isn't really that large from what I';ve seen of it and u get comfortable real quick. I've never really made friends in the city but I am used to this.

Chicago actually has more snow than NYC. And hotter, more humid summers. But on average they are similar. It's just the extremes that Chicago bites you in the *** with. Minneapolis is obviously worse in the winter. Chicago is easily cheaper than NYC but NYC has more entertainment and the arts (but Chicago has far more than the average person would ever need). Minneapolis I'm not as familiar with but it's not AS big city. NYC has NYU, Columbia, etc and Chicago has University of Chicago, Northwestern. (These are all top-tier). Chicago also has UIC (University of Illinois at Chicago) which is more of a normal public state school (less selective than University of Chicago at Champaign-Urbana which is the main one), Loyola (Catholic affiliated), and both cities have A LOT of colleges.
