You might have seen this nest egg index survey from A.G. Edwards since it’s been reported on Yahoo and Forbes. The survey looks at which cities in America have residents who are bucking the negative savings rate trend and doing a good job socking away.

Here’s a localized breakdown of how Minnesota cities fall on the list.

Why do you think Minneapolis-St. Paul ranks number five nationwide in personal savings?

Care to hazard a guess about why Los Alamos, N.M. is tops?
