Am I confused about Minneapolis?

My friend and I were talking. And for some reason we started talking about population of cities. And we would Google one and ask the other to guess.
For reference NYC has like 9 million people.
So Minneapolis came up… and for some reason I guessed about the population of Atlanta or event Chicago.
It’s like the size of Buffalo or something.
Why did I have images of sky scrapers and high end shops and a cosmopolitan downtown?
Google image Minneapolis and it looks like a village.

The metro area is big

Looks like a downtown skyline of a city of about 3 million. What the frick did you expect?

I think it is kind of our message to Russia that our people can survive that cold. And beat your Russian Bitch arse in hockey whatever that is worth. Not much to most of us

There is no excuse for this ignorance in 2022. You can find out everything about a city in about 3 minutes before you visit.

ATL is like 100 cities in 12 counties...
Like almost 7M people in the area.
Although Minneapolis is big area-wise as well, I'm not sure the Dakotas plus Minnesota are 7M people.

Buffalo is on par with New Orleans in size.

Favorable laws for big businesses. At least used to be .

Hennepin County (Minneapolis) 1.2M
Ramsey County (St Paul) 500k
16 Fortune 500 companies are based in Twin Cities

I used to live in St.Paul and suburbs North of Minneapolis.
Other than having to commute on ice in the winter, its a nice place to live...especially the suburban cities surrounding the metro.

City limit boundaries are political and arbitrary. Use metro for true size.

Google is your friend. I'm sure you'll get better answers than a forum dedicated to SEC football. If you do further research, you'll see that Minneapolis has over 400k people (about 100k bigger than NOLA), St. Paul has over 300k (about 50k more than BR). The metro area has a little less than 3.75 million so it's not Chicago or Houston big, but closer to Milwaukee or Nashville big.

Moved here at the end of last year from Houston. Im in New Brighton which is kind of in the middle of the twin cities but more St. Paul. It feels much much smaller to me. There is hardly any traffic by comparison and I seem to be able to get to any part of the cities in a short amount of time. It is -7 right now and that blows hard, but otherwise, I am digging it.
eta: it feels smaller to me than I expected, I mean. I am not sure what I expected, but Im not comparing it to Houston or Chicago.
