About St. Cloud
St. Cloud is included here because a portion of the city lies in Sherburne County (most of the city is in Stearns County, with parts in Benton County as well). It is a regional center of 70,000+ people on the Mississippi River — home to St. Cloud State University — and functions as its own metro area rather than a Twin Cities suburb.
