Minneapolis, located on the Mississippi River in southeastern Minnesota, is the largest city in the state, with a population of around 400,000. It and adjacent St. Paul were dubbed "the Twin Cities" by Mark Twain. St. Anthony Falls, the only waterfall on the Mississippi River, supplied electricity for dozens of Minneapolis flour and lumber mills built in the late 19th century. Within a short time, the city was the flour milling capital of the world; industry giants Pillsbury and General Mills are still based there.It ranked #4 among big cities on Men's Journal's 2004 list of the 50 Best Places to Live, #3 on Child Magazine's 10 Best Cities for Families and #7 on Ladies Home Journal's 2002 List of Best Cities for Women.
