According to MSN Real Estate and Bert Sperling the Twin Cities is one of the countries 10 most liveable spots!  The study evaluated the nation’s most affordable markets in the 100 largest U.S. metro areas and pinpointed the 10 most livable spots: places where unemployment is lower than the national average, commute times are mercifully short and there’s enough interesting entertainment or recreation to keep most people busy. We defined affordability by the ratio of median income to median home price in the first quarter of 2012.
