Since you're a "REbel" and all...MN is a great place to live, possible one of the best states if you're Hmong!
Everyone is trying to get me to move there… so in the summer time I’ll be coming for a weeklong visit.
~you should come, see and conquer!
If you lived in California and moved there, what do you like most about Minnesota, compared to California?
~cost of living and less crime.
I prefer smaller towns, what is a smaller town that is also close to the big city but Not so far out but is near Hmong people lol
~we have a lot of small cities clumped together, so it's considered as all one big city...but there are plenty of smaller cities 30-60 minutes outside of the twin cities.
I would recommend Rogers, Mora, Chisago, Prior Lake.
What kind of things do single Hmong people do there for fun?
~depends on what kind of socialites you are...clubbing (american and hmong), Bars and private parties. anti-social people usually do outdoor activities (fishing, camping and etc)
Recommend me your favorite coffee shops?
~Speedway or Holiday...chea p and made just how you like it (your own customization).
If you’re single, how do you spend your day?
~eat, sleep and work
What area have the most professional and single people living?
~Saint Paul, it's centrally located.
Weather wise, how hot does it get? And what happens if I freak out and can’t drive in the snow… do I pull over? Haha just kidding
~our weather is as bipolar as women! haha, j/k! we have 4 seasons but winter seems to be the longest. we don't have a heat issue but a humidity issue during the summer. we have abnormal snow falls and negative windchills in the winter.
as for driving in the snow, learn how to drift if you have a sedan, we would recommend 4wheel drive trucks/suvs.
How close knit are Hmong communities? I don’t live near any so, I’m just curious…
~we are a very close knit community; our hmong community is very supportive, our funeral homes are always overpacked, we protest like blm but peacefully. our gossip is faster than wild fire, and if you're fresh meat it's like fly on sh!t!
What type of jobs are in the areas of Minneapolis and St. Paul?
~we have a wide variety of jobs available, inner city usually consists of temporary and manufacturing/assembly jobs, nursing is also popular and self-employed individuals like real estate agents to insurance sales reps.
Approximately how much is the cost of living around at Paul/Minneapolis? Which part of town is more affluent? Which is not?
~due to the high inflation things have gone up a bit, renting is at $1000/mo. on average, housing market is at the average price of $235k-$260K for single family,
a bowl of pho is approximately $12.00, a dozen eggs is $4.99, gas is at $3.29/gallon, utilities on average is $200/mo during summer and $400/winter (for single family homes).
Western metro cities is more affluent, that's where most of the rich people live. avoid the whole city of minneapolis, poor politics, crimes and people.
Sorry for all the questions, I’m feeling a little pressured to moved… I just want an idea that all hahaha
~never feel pressured to move, i came to visit and just haven't left yet...that's like 2 decades ago!
