Peterson has yet to put a famous person on the list

In Minnesota, 413 towns have someone on the list. The longest list of any town in Minnesota belongs to Duluth, with 50. St. Cloud has the second-longest list in Minnesota, after Duluth, with 48.

Who’s listed here

Famous people come from Wikidata (people whose birthplace is Peterson), checked against each person’s English Wikipedia article and ranked by how many Wikipedia languages cover them. Nobody born in Peterson has passed that check yet, and nobody born within 35 miles is listed.
