Saint Cloud: Granite City on the Upper Mississippi
Saint Cloud straddles the Mississippi River roughly 65 miles northwest of Minneapolis. The granite quarries south of the city supplied building stone for projects across the country in the late 1800s and early 1900s, earning Saint Cloud the nickname Granite City. Quarrying continues on a smaller scale today.
St. Cloud State University enrolls about 14,000 students and is the largest institution in the Minnesota State system. The campus runs along the south bank of the Mississippi. The city also hosts the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University consortium nearby in the towns of Saint Joseph and Collegeville.
The Saint Cloud metropolitan area has experienced significant demographic change since the early 2000s, with growing Somali and East African communities. This shift has reshaped neighborhoods, businesses, and schools. The city's economy relies on manufacturing, healthcare through CentraCare, and regional retail.
