MinnPost is a great resource for minnesota-focused news and analysis. Especially interesting is the local economic and education news. This article analyzes one study released regarding SES and life expectancy in the Twin Cities. I highly recommend utilizing MinnPost as a news source if you are teaching in Minnesota.
