But don't think about visiting during spring break, where the Twin Cities are ranked #29 out #30 on a new survey from the magazine Travel and Leisure. Let's see where else we rank in the Top 10 - Intelligent, Friendly, Athletic/Active, Family Vacation, Affordable Getaway, Affordable Hotels, Live Music/Concerts and bands, Classical Music, Theatre, Museums/Galleries, Cafes/Coffee Shops, Farmer's Markets, Public Parks, Cleanliness, Public Transportation, Safety, Environmental, Summer Vacation, and lots of love for our airport. Not bad. Now if we can work on that March weather... AND - while not a category in this survey, we do have the highest percentage of a population listening to Public Radio among the Top 30 cities! Thank you, you (relatively) beautiful and (obviously) intelligent people!
