I've been pouring through local census data trying to make some comparisons, and I remembered some of the comparisons made in this thread, so I decided to go through the exercise of updating the numbers for Minneapolis and St. Paul to reflect the data just released today.

here's how it breaks down for the twin cities:

183,441 total in the MSA

141,639 in Minneapolis

37,304 in St. Paul

4,498 in Brooklyn Park
Minneapolis 10k+: 196,462
St. Paul 10k+: 43,094
Brooklyn Park 10k+: 4,578


A few other 2010 vs. 2020 comparisons that I made to help quantify local growth for myself:

-At 20k ppsm+, Minneapolis went from 5 census tracts and 16,828 people to 11 tracts and 47,277 people.
-At 30k ppsm+, Minneapolis went from 0 tracts and 0 people to 2 tracts and 8,638 people.
-At 40k ppsm+, Minneapolis went from 0 tracts and 0 people to 1 tract and 4,320 people.

-At 20k ppsm+ St. Paul went from 0 tracts and 0 people to 2 tracts and 5,721 people.
