St. Louis Park

First ring suburb of Minneapolis, home of Al Franken, the Coen Brothers, and Thomas L. Friedman. Also home to many artsy and funky middle-agers and aging hippies who are trying to raise their kids to be progressive. Large Jewish population because in the thirties, Jews weren't allowed to buy property in Minneapolis.

Woman: I wanted to buy a little house, so we went to St. Louis Park.
Man: Cool! It's so close to Minneapolis!
woman: Yeah, and it's so progressive!
