Being conveniently located to one of the best medical facilities in the country is a huge factor that drives people to move to a certain area.
Proximity to a hospital with great ratings provides peace of mind should one ever find themselves in need of top-notch medical care.
While there are a handful of Minnesota hospitals named among the best in the U.S., one is raked higher than all the rest.
According to a list compiled by Newsweek, the best hospital in Minnesota for 2025 is the Mayo Clinic - Rochester in Rochester.
Other Minnesota hospitals on the list include Abbott Northwestern Hospital in Minneapolis, M Health Fairview University of Minnesota Medical Center in Minneapolis, and CentraCare - St. Cloud Hospital in St. Cloud, to name only a few.
Here's what Newsweek had to say about compiling the data to discover the best hospitals across the country for the coming year:
"This year's rankings include facilities in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The rankings were compiled using quality metrics from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the AHA Annual Survey of Hospitals Database, a nationwide online survey among medical professionals, results from HCAHPS patient experience surveys and a voluntary PROMs (Patient-Reported Outcome Measures) implementation survey."
