A YouTube-only ranking and directory using total displayed subscribers across verified official creator-controlled channels for people and creator groups 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.

Short answer
Who leads this Minnesota YouTube dataset?
As of September 2026, CboysTV has the largest publicly reproducible YouTube subscriber total among the currently Minnesota-based creators included in this dataset, with approximately 5.93 million subscribers across two publicly linked official channels.

What this YouTube ranking counts
The ranking adds publicly displayed subscriber counts only when public evidence independently connects each channel to the listed creator or creator group. Primary, secondary, live, podcast and niche channels receive the same evidence test for every candidate; private account access is not ranking evidence.

What this directory owns
This page owns Minnesota YouTuber and YouTube creator intent. The broader creator directory covers cross-platform influencers; the notable-people directory covers public figures beyond creator work. Inclusion requires a public channel and a verifiable Minnesota connection.
Subscriber data is time-sensitive
Subscriber counts and channel activity can change at any time. Each figure should be read with its observation date and source. The candidate preserves the existing people and metrics rather than inventing updates without a fresh source audit.

Important limitation: YouTube publicly rounds many subscriber counts. Totals on this page are approximate snapshots, and a person may subscribe to more than one channel in the same portfolio.
Group channels are ranked as group entities. Shared channels are not copied in full to every individual member. Fan, clip, employer, network and collaborator-owned channels are excluded unless creator control is established.
Publisher disclosure: Josh Liljenquist publishes this website and is included in the ranking. The same channel-control and Minnesota-eligibility rules are applied to every creator or creator group listed. The public JSON snapshot and source links are provided for review.

Concise answers
Minnesota YouTube creator questions
Who leads this Minnesota YouTube dataset?
In this September 2026 snapshot, CboysTV has the largest publicly reproducible total at approximately 5.93 million subscribers across two official, publicly linked channels.
Are subscriber totals exact?
No. YouTube publicly rounds many channel counts, and multi-channel totals can include overlapping subscribers.
Why does the ranking include some secondary channels?
A secondary channel is counted only when a public official account network or equivalent independent evidence connects it to the creator. Private account access is not used.
How is this different from the Minnesota Creator Index?
This page ranks YouTube subscribers only. The Minnesota Creator Index compares audience totals across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook.
