Facebook follower snapshot · September 17, 2026
Most-Followed Facebook Creators in Minnesota
A Facebook-only ranking and directory using public follower counts on one verified primary official Page or professional profile for each creator or creator group currently based in Minnesota.
Geographic eligibility corrections dated September 19, 2026. Audience values and their individual observation dates remain from the September 17 source snapshot; they were not remeasured. Numerical positions were recalculated only after current-base eligibility holds. Unresolved current geography does not mean a confirmed move elsewhere.

One metric, applied symmetrically
What this Facebook ranking counts
The ranking compares one verified primary official Facebook creator presence for each creator entity. Both Pages and professional profiles are eligible when they are demonstrably official and expose a comparable public follower count.
Why primary-presence-only? Aggregating multiple Pages and profiles was rejected because secondary projects, brands and legacy presences cannot be discovered or attributed consistently across the full cohort. One primary presence per creator entity is more reproducible and less likely to double count overlapping audiences.
Facebook Pages and professional profiles can both qualify, but only their public follower counts are comparable. Page likes, friends, group members, engagement, views and reach are excluded. Shared and group audiences are assigned once to the group entity. Counts change continuously, and follower totals do not represent unique people.
Publisher disclosure: Josh Liljenquist publishes this website and is included in the ranking. The same Facebook-presence and Minnesota-eligibility rules are applied to every creator or creator group listed. The public JSON snapshot and source links are provided for review.

Audited without an ordinal rank
Other Facebook creators checked in the Minnesota audit
These creators remain in the research record, but an official primary Facebook presence, comparable public follower count, or current Minnesota qualification could not be resolved strongly enough for numerical ranking.

Geography boundary
Minnesota-born Facebook creators now based elsewhere
Large Minnesota-linked creators are shown separately so the primary ranking does not silently omit them or weaken its current-residence rule.
Justin Flom
Born in Minnesota and now based in Las Vegas. His official Facebook Page had approximately 27.46 million followers on September 17, 2026, but he is excluded from the current-Minnesota ranking.
Jimmy Darts
Grew up in Walker, Minnesota; recent reporting places him in Orange County, California. His official Facebook Page had approximately 6.74 million followers on September 17, 2026, so he remains a Minnesota-linked comparison rather than a current-resident ranking record.

Method questions
How the Facebook ranking works
What counts as a Minnesota Facebook creator?
A creator or creator group must have a documented current Minnesota residence, creator base or professional base and an official Facebook presence used for public creator work. Birthplace, former residence and a general Minnesota association do not qualify by themselves.
Are Facebook Pages and professional profiles both eligible?
Yes. Either can qualify when creator control is sufficiently verified and Facebook publicly exposes a comparable follower count. All 17 ranked records in this eligibility-reviewed snapshot resolved to Pages; no professional-profile record met every ranking requirement in this cohort.
Are multiple Facebook Pages added together?
No. The ranking uses one primary official presence per creator entity. Secondary projects, business pages, brand properties and legacy pages were reviewed but not aggregated.
Why are Page likes and Facebook Groups excluded?
Page likes and group membership measure different actions from following a creator presence. Mixing them would make the ranking internally inconsistent.
How are family and group entities handled?
A shared audience is assigned once to the group entity. Food Dolls, CboysTV, The Chats Fam and Squirmy and Grubs are not duplicated across individual members.
What happens when a count cannot be verified?
The creator remains visible in the audit's partially verified section but receives no ordinal rank. Unknown values are not treated as zero.
Current geography review; historical audience retained
On October 29, the shared geography review reconciled Squirmy and Grubs as a documented non-exclusive Twin Cities creator base, alongside a seasonal Los Angeles base. The source-backed decision applies consistently across the current directories and platform supplements.
This page’s ranked and partial arrays remain the original dated audience comparison. They have not been remeasured or reranked. A partial YouTube or Instagram observation is not zero or newly rankable merely because a geography question is resolved. Use a separately dated comparable audience edition before recalculating a ranking.
