I am going to have to disagree with you here...then again, you have only been up here
twice. First off...I am excited to be moving back to KC, the date can not be here soon enough. However, LIVING in both metropolitans I'd have to say the KC metro area is full of plumpers...go figure, the BBQ. While up here, its all about fish. Also, the Twin Cities has one of the top trail systems in the nation. The trails are always packed with runners or cross-country skiers. One could bike from the west metro to the to the new Twins Stadium with no issues...can you bike from Olathe to Kaufman without issues? Plain and simple, the twin cities offers WAY MORE to do in regards to recreational activities.
And sprawl...? Both metros exhibit their share of sprawl...as does EVERY metropolitan area. One thing Minneapolis has going for them in regards to sprawl is their transit system...The "Jo"ke is a total fail in regards to mass transit.
With all that being said...
I just can't wait to move back to KC, get fat on some BBQ, and have no reason to go out and run anymore...
Edit*...I just noticed...you are from Omaha? ...child please.
