Chicago is about 3 times the size of the Twin Cities and is generally more well known and payed attention to. The Twin Cities mostly get ignored by the rest of the country, unless something like the murder of George Floyd happens, so that doesn't move the needle against Minnesota. The only people who really hate them are people in rural Minnesota, but most of them have a lot of state pride so still have a favorable view of Minnesota.
