Minneapolis is way cheaper too, which makes up for the cold, hell I'd take that over rain.

And more Republican? You are really splitting at hairs here. The Republican Party is completely meaningless in Minneapolis, they hold absolutely no influence whatsoever and have absolutely no chance of winning any elections no matter how minor. Hell the Green Party has had more electoral success in Minneapolis than the GOP.

Dude the suburbs of your city are massive fail!!

Do you think I care about what the suburbs are like? I don't take suburbs into accout at all since I'd never ever live in them under any circumstances.

This thread is funny.

The Twin Cities and Seattle do have some things in common:

Both cities have good high tech industry (Computer/software in Seattle, medical in Minneapolis)
Both cities are progressive.
Both have crappy weather for 8 months out of the year.
Both have ample access, though very different, to water for recreational opportunities.
Both cities are a relatively short drive to beautiful wilderness.

But this thread isn't about Minneapolis/St. Paul.  It's about Albert Lea and Seattle.  And I doubt very much that Albert Lea is more liberal than Seattle.

Albert Lea elects a strip club owner to their city council. Seattle gets all prudish and whiny about them.

There are probably very large cultural reasons for this that I could get into, but it doesn't make Albert Lea more liberal than Seattle.

What type of cultural reasons? Albert Lea is a LOT more religious.
