Minnesota has 665 published IT service providers in the current directory, part of a national dataset covering all 50 states. The state's listings give a picture of where IT companies in Minnesota are concentrated and how they compare with national patterns.

The top cities for IT service providers in Minnesota are Minneapolis, Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Saint Paul, and Duluth. These five cities account for the bulk of named activity in the state, with the Twin Cities area contributing most of the metro-level presence. Duluth's appearance alongside the Minneapolis-Saint Paul suburbs shows that IT service activity in Minnesota is not limited to a single metro, though the core of the industry sits around the Minneapolis and Saint Paul corridor.

Of the 665 Minnesota providers, 315 carry a Google rating, which gives a partial but useful read on how many firms in the state have an established online reputation presence. The median rating among those is 5.00, matching the national median rating of 5.00 across the full dataset of 46,092 published IT service providers. This suggests that the ratings landscape in Minnesota does not differ from what is seen nationally when a rating exists.

Firm size in Minnesota skews slightly larger than the national figure. The median employee count for Minnesota providers is 11.5, compared with a national median of 9 employees across all published listings. This points to a Minnesota base that includes a mix of smaller operations and somewhat larger firms, with the midpoint sitting above the national benchmark.

Nationally, the dataset includes 46,092 published IT service providers across all 50 states, with 789 metros represented. Of those national listings, 21,055 carry a Google rating and 1,506 include pricing information, with a median rating of 5.00 across the full population. The top states by provider count nationally are California, Texas, Florida, New York, and Virginia, and Minnesota's 665 providers sit within that broader national context rather than among the top five states by volume.

Activity signals are also tracked at the national level, with 12,070 signals recorded over the most recent 30-day period across the dataset. This measure reflects recent listing activity nationally and is not broken out by state in this dataset, so it should be read as a backdrop to the Minnesota figures rather than a state-specific count.

Taken together, the Minnesota numbers show a state with a moderate but organized base of IT service providers concentrated in a handful of cities, a rating pattern consistent with the national median, and a workforce size per firm that runs slightly above the national midpoint. With 665 total published providers and 315 of them carrying a Google rating, roughly half of the state's listed companies have a visible rating on record, a share that mirrors the proportion seen in the national figures of 21,055 out of 46,092.

For anyone reviewing IT companies in Minnesota through this directory, the data points to Minneapolis, Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Saint Paul, and Duluth as the cities where provider counts are most concentrated, with the state's median firm size and rating profile falling in line with or slightly above what is observed across the full national dataset of 46,092 providers spanning all 50 states and 789 metros.
