Minneapolis is a city of about 430,000 people, with ZIP codes 554 covering the city and 553 and 554 the western suburbs, at the center of the Twin Cities metro of 3.7 million that includes St. Paul (551), the affluent lake suburbs of Edina, Minnetonka and Wayzata, and the growing suburbs of Plymouth, Maple Grove, Eden Prairie, Woodbury and Lakeville. The city is single-family bungalows and Tudors on dense residential routes (Linden Hills, Kenwood, Longfellow, Northeast) with apartment districts in Uptown, the North Loop and downtown; the suburbs are single-family on large routes with some of the highest household incomes in the Midwest.
The Twin Cities mail through the Fortune 500 headquarters, medical device companies and health systems that mail consumers nationally from here; through real estate teams farming the lake neighborhoods and the western suburbs; through home services companies serving a housing stock that faces the hardest winters of any large metro; and through the restaurants, dental practices, private schools, churches and nonprofits that mail both cities and every suburb.
