    Minneapolis ranks 46th in racial diversity of the 66 cities listed, between St. Louis and Nashville.

    Most diverse:

    1. Stockton, CA
    2. Oakland, CA
    3. Sacramento, CA
    4. New York, NY
    5. Long Beach, CA

    Least diverse:

    66. El Paso, TX
    65. Detroit MI
    64. Lexington, KY
    63. Portland, OR (somehow not 66th)
    62. Louisville, KY
    Well yeah, a few white hipsters aren't going to change Detroit. We still practice de facto redlining.

    Really surprised to see El Paso there.

        Interesting that St. Paul comes in at 29, between Cleveland and DC.

        There's still quite a bit of white to be found in the SW and NE neighborhoods of MPLS.

            So what's the deal between Minneapolis and St. Paul? What are the reps? Is it university vs locals?, big vs small?, liberal vs conservative?, old money vs new money? What?

                  Minneapolis : St. Paul :: x : y
                  Swedish vs Irish.

                  In all seriousness, I'm not certain. MPLS is having white hipsters move in, and some retired folks move back into one of the many condos that have been built. St. Paul hasn't.

                      Minneapolis has that whole 'hood around a couple of lakes where the twenty-something Target yuppies congregate (generally known as "Southwest"). The rest of the city is pretty much like any other Rust Belt town. Nordeast used to have the reputation "Compton of the North", but I think the white dudes with handlebar mustaches have encroached in recent years and that has started to change.

                        You're thinking of North, not Nordeast. Nordeast was Poles and Russians, but is being taken over by hipsters. North is still the area people avoid, and is of course where I live. It isn't as bad as its press. Gentrification efforts are underway, and it causes some conflict of course.

                          (1) Let's say you have to buy property in one sight unseen. Which do you pick?

                          (2) Now let's say you are going to a party in one, sight unseen. Which do you pick?

                          For example: The City vs Brooklyn

                          (1) Manhattan
                          (2) Brooklyn

                          DC vs Baltimore

                          (1) DC
                          (2) Baltimore

                          Boston vs Cambridge

                          (1) Cambridge
                          (2) Cambridge

                              Yep, that's North. Robbinsdale to the west and Brooklyn Center to the north.
