Personality snapshot
Heart wins out over head a little more often here than almost anywhere else – only five states lean further toward Feeling. These respondents lean Intuitive, but less strongly than the U.S. as a whole, and that small Observant tilt shows up in the types. Analysts such as ENTJs (Commanders) are scarcer, while ISFJs (Defenders) turn up more often and ESFJs (Consuls) are 27% more common than across the U.S.
About Minnesota
Minnesota sits at the northern edge of the Midwest, reaching from prairies in the west to the shore of Lake Superior in the northeast. The Mississippi River begins at Lake Itasca in the state’s north woods, and the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness draws paddlers to a network of lakes along the Canadian border. Minneapolis and Saint Paul, known together as the Twin Cities, form its main urban center.
