To summarize, only about 200 Finnish-born immigrants have lived in the thirty-one counties considered above, in the "too fruitful" southern region. Naturally, listing second, third and fourth generation native-born descendants of these immigrants would probably raise the figure to at least 400. If this was the part of Minnesota that the Finnish immigrants saw first, the more permanent Finnish areas of settlement nevertheless lie to the north of the Minnesota River.
