Rising year-over-year volume
Minnesota in the lower-rate third
Consumers in Minnesota have filed 79,377 CFPB complaints (1382.3 per 100,000 residents) - a lower-third per-capita rate; small absolute counts still matter when a single company dominates. Even at a lower per-capita rate, "Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports" still dominates the local product mix. Equifax, Inc. draws the most complaints from Minnesota residents in the top-companies table above. On the per-capita ladder, nearest peers are Kentucky and Utah.
Year-over-year, complaint volume from Minnesota rose from 13,985 in 2024 to 24,341 in 2025 - a change of +74%. 5,767 complaints have been logged for 2026 so far in this extract, a partial year that should not be compared directly to a full prior year. That is a meaningful full-year shift; complaint-flow volatility alone can also explain swings this size.
