I do not hold water for MN residents. To be honest I am always disappointed in their voting history! There is nothing like Jesse the body Ventura and Mark Dayton (a mentally unstable alcoholic) to make you disdain the people of MN. But in comparison, their losses in the housing market are minuscule to CA. MN’s are not without their faults, and I am quite sure you can find more responsible people elsewhere. But the home price in respect to household income is enviable by CA standards without a doubt. Their problems are significant, but in comparison to s. California they are saints.
