I don’t think it is possible or necessarily important to have officers living inside city limits; I certainly don’t begrudge Minneapolis police officers of firefighters from living in Richfield, or St. Louis Park or Robbinsdale or any other “close in suburb”.  I do question the motives of one who decides to pick up an move away from the metro area however.

Perhaps this issue has already been dealt with, but police officers used to be required to live within the city.  Then about ten years ago they (police) went to the legislature and the legislature told the city they could not require police to live within the city.
