What is the source of this data? For example, the population figure is
wrong. Minneapolis had 382,618 people in the 2000 Census
(http://www.metrocouncil.org/Census/news_265.htm); Minnesota had 4,919,479
people in the same census (http://www.census.gov/census2000/states/mn.html).

That means we have 7.8 percent of the state population, not 11 percent.

I'd bet Vicky's taxable real estate figure is also wrong - at least until I
see a source.
