An estimated 100,000 Minnesotans rely on a state supported health care plan whose future is in doubt at the Capitol. MinnesotaCare provides quality, low-cost care for Minnesotans with moderate incomes who do not qualify for Medicaid. The plan has been modeled nationally, and is an integral part of Minnesota’s health care network.

AARP today listed Virginia, Minnesota’s Southside neighborhood as one of the top 10 most livable neighborhoods in the nation. The list was part of the unveiling of AARP’s Livability Index, a first of its kind resource that allows people to determine how well their communities are meeting their current and future needs. People, policy makers and the private sector can use the Livability Index to measure how their location – down to the neighborhood level – rates across a comprehensive range of metrics that reflect the resident experience.
