Commute from Maple Grove to Minneapolis?
We are about to relocate to MN and are thinking of buying in Maple Grove. One of us will be working downtown Minneapolis and the other in St. Cloud. Everyone says the St. Cloud commute will be better even though it's much farther. Is traffic from Maple Grove into downtown really THAT bad? How long would that drive take, on average, during the week?

if you take 494, the traffic will be bad especially on the drive home. I go into downtown MPLS from Minnetonka so my drive isn't bad unless they're doing road construction, but if you're going the 494 to 394 route from Maple Grove I know it will be a pain getting home. Good news is that they are planning a transit corridor to go up to the northwest suburbs, but that could be awhile until it is finally constructed.
