Minneapolis and Saint Paul anchor one of the country’s strongest corporate economies, with a long list of Fortune 500 headquarters across the metro, including Target, U.S. Bancorp, UnitedHealth Group, General Mills, 3M and Best Buy. Medical technology is a specialty, with Medtronic’s operational headquarters and hundreds of device companies clustered here, and the University of Minnesota, finance, food and agribusiness round out the economy. Business visitors move constantly between downtown towers, suburban corporate campuses and the State Capitol in Saint Paul.
Minneapolis–Saint Paul International is a major hub, but many trips to smaller cities still involve connections, and the metro’s headquarters are scattered across the suburbs. Flying private lets you use Flying Cloud Airport in Eden Prairie, Saint Paul’s downtown Holman Field or Anoka County–Blaine and fly direct to plants, clients or a lake cabin up north. Leisure visitors come for the Guthrie Theater and the Walker Art Center, the Chain of Lakes, the Mississippi riverfront around St. Anthony Falls, the Mall of America and a food scene shaped by Scandinavian, Hmong, Somali and Mexican communities.

Things to do in Minneapolis
When to go. Summer and early fall are the most popular times to visit Minneapolis, when the lakes, patios and parks are at their best. The Minnesota State Fair, one of the largest in the country, runs for 12 days ending on Labor Day. Fall color peaks in late September and October. Winters are cold and snowy, but the skyway system connects much of downtown, and Saint Paul’s Winter Carnival celebrates the season in late January.
