Partly because they are smallish cities in a major metro area but with a teeming university campus sprawling across both of them, demographer Frey found that Minneapolis and St. Paul are the nation's fifth-youngest when lined up against the primary cities in other metro areas. They're in the same league with college towns such as Austin, Texas, and Columbus, Ohio.

The Twin Cities area as a whole, his analysis showed, stayed even in its share of under-45s during the past decade, even as many others fell: not just Rust Belt cities like Akron or Milwaukee but more happening cities such as Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and San Francisco.

Article by: JEREMY OLSON , Star Tribune

Divorce can have a severe impact on children -- hurting their performance in math, increasing their anxiety and short-circuiting their social skills -- but not necessarily as soon as families and family therapists expect it.

While research has shown that children struggle with divorce, a study released Thursday by the University of Wisconsin-Madison is one of the first to determine just when those struggles emerge.

Sun Country Airlines hooked up with the popular Groupon phenomenon Wednesday, offering discounted fares of $180 on domestic flights and flights to Mexico for $320.
