- Moving from California to North Dakota was a big change, but I’m glad we did it. I’m could have touched base on a few more things, so if you have any questions feel free to comment here or find me on Instagram (link below) and shoot me a DM. Overall, I enjoy it here. I wish it wasn’t so far from other friends and family, but I’m thankful that this move led to a place we are happy to call home for however long God intends for us. Thank you SO much for watching. It makes my day to see a comment or a new subscriber and I’m honored that you’d want to be apart of my story! You’re the best!
XOXO,
Sarah

Thank you. We moved here about 10 years ago from California. We will never move back.
Thinking about moving to Fargo from Cali as well, also hoping to never return to Cali
I have no desire to move back either!
Considering North Dakota from California. But I'm not sure there would be the software jobs in case my work situation changes. And winter is more something I've heard of than been through.
@@barryon8706 Microsoft is a top employer in the Fargo area. There are also a TON of healthcare jobs, some of which involve software development in the area.
@@jolt4532 Thanks!
We moved to Fargo from CA 5yrs ago. I agree with everything you have shared about Fargo. This is a great place to raise family. The best way for me describe ND is " the coldest place with the warmest people!". 😃
Yes!!! More ND bloggers. We love to see it! 😘
Thank you 🥰♥️
Hello I’d like to move in Fargo but I wanna know the salary exactly I hear someone who talks about it it’s a good city
Can u give me more information plz
My husband and I moved to Dickinson back in 2018. Tornado went right by town and we decided to move back to Washington. After lots of prayer, God is pushing us to move back and opening so many doors for us over there!! We are waiting to hear back from his boss, but it sounds like we will be moving in June!
Hello, @BizzyBeeNails* reading through the comments yours definitely stands out. Our family is considering North Dakota but honestly God will have to deal with us when it comes to tornadoes🌪 also were waiting for confirmation from God and interested if you may share how God opened doors for you guys🙏🏼 Hoping to hear back🤗Blessings
@@evev88 absolutely! My relationship with God is still growing. But here’s how it goes:
After moving back in with family, my husband was terminated from his job. We were quite relieved! But, I’m a stay at home mom. So I don’t bring in any money. That’s when I got closer with God. I prayed that He would supply us with what we need when we need it. Then, last Sunday, I asked God to give my husband a job this week (we have a toddler and the things that come up never end). Last night, he applied for a job and today he got word that he has the job and starts on the 16th of this month! Anyways, back to ND.... before we moved in with family, again, doors were opening for us to go back. It quickly wasn’t working out because there wasn’t any housing available. Well, as of last week, God is pushing us through the door 😍 the same house we had last time has our name on it!!!! Now we just have to make it safely from Brewster, Wa. To Dickinson, ND. I’ve been looking at hotels and even the possibility of taking my mom and daughter on a plane with me while my husband drives over with our car and dog. Those passes in Montana scared me when there wasn’t any snow... we are expecting to move the last week of March or first week of April..... I don’t do well with driving in snow 🙄🥴 I know God will watch over us though 💜
What do you do to get ready your dog for a walk in winter? Like protecting his paws, do you make it wear a coat, things like that. Thank you 😊
The closest major cities are Winnipeg to the north or Minneapolis-Saint Paul to the east.
Take your choice equal distance by car from Fargo!
Thanks for this video. My family and I are moving to Fargo from Lincoln, NE in August 2021 so I can attend NDSU for a PhD. We have a visit planned for the beginning of July to check things out and look for apartments. I'm excited to see what it's like there.
Interesting. My sister moved from Fargo to Lincoln for her Masters.
The coldest day ever recorded in North Dakota was on February 15, 1936, when the temperature plunged to 60 degrees below zero at Parshall.
Wow I just found out I’m from the neighboring city that you came from and I wish I could live up there
I grew up in North Dakota, a mile from the Manitoba border, and spent 10 happy years living in Fargo. I'm in Minneapolis now and we hear horrible reports about Fargo weather. When I lived in Fargo, we heard horrible reports about Minneapolis weather. Once it gets below zero, cold is just cold, no matter where you live. The one thing I absolutely hated about Fargo was the wind. They call Chicago The Windy City --- I would challenge that title after living in Fargo.
One year when I went to an HS in Fargo. Fargo actually averaged more wind speed then Chicago did. So Fargo is windier then Chicago.
Hunter thermals at bass pro shop or cabelas. Moving up there in March. Thanx
I lived there for 1 year by the INOVUS Hospital and worked Boppas Bagels and at SunMart Foods. Had the most beautiful girlfriend too. Stacy my love.
That’s funny that I seen this comment. Innovis is now Essentia hospital and Sunmart is now Family Fair. Pretty sure Boppa’s is still there, though.
It's cold...that's the main thing Ginger
I grew up in Moorhead. My advice is escape as soon as possible and never look back.
North Dakota is my home state you will always love it here
Hì Soon I am coming North Dokata from pakistan
Hello! I have listened to your speech carefully. This is much things you're mentioned. How much is cost of appartment in Fargo approximately?
That’s hard to say! It ranges significantly depending on location as well as amenities. You could get a 2 bed 1 bath for 600-700 in some areas, maybe even less in others (Moorhead is a little cheaper)
@@Blessingsbeautyandbravery Thank you! It's 3 times more than in my state of permanent residence.
God , life and living in california sounds like worst nightmare
Fargo is boring. Make sure you're old and have a partner. Not for 20s and 30s
What kind of jobs are out there?
There are all kinds of jobs! I’d hop on indeed and set the location to fargo so you can see what is available and what the wages are 🤗
Do you need a car living in North Dakota?
I would say yes. There is Uber, door dash, insta cart, etc. there are days too cold to walk anywhere but I’m sure some people do it.
What's the internet strength like there?
We use Midco and don’t have any issues!
@@Blessingsbeautyandbravery how fast
@@goods3122 just the same as in every state
Fargo sucks
Well let’s be fair
The whole state sux
I’m so glad i’m gone and will never be back.
Snow in feet and miserable corporations
12:45 maybe learn the names of the flowers on top of their colors?
Nope don’t like it. Come back to California
Miss you 😭
It definitely depends on where you live. There are a lot of smaller family oriented towns and communities within larger towns even, it’s just so expensive that it’s hard to live and grow there for a lot of people. I love Cali but I’m enjoying those differences in ND! 🤗
Idaho has been overrun by Californians, the dynamic from 20 years ago is appalling. 2 hour traffic jams coming out of the mountains back to boise. Hunting, fishing, and natural resources have declined due to over use. Hot springs have shut down due to littering and loitering. Home prices have increased 10 to 20 times from early 90s. The political, religious, and communities have isolated themselves from each other. You have to lock doors now, yes! you used to never lock homes or vehicles. Its interesting how California has over populated their state, and have destroyed their cities with homelessness, and pollution through its management. Now its rearing its ugly head in idaho, and its spread to Montana, Dakotas, Wyoming, Utah, and Nevada.
I’m sorry to hear our infestation has upset you 🤷🏼♀️ We personally enjoy our new home and seem to have met quite a few people that enjoy our presence here. Most people leaving Cali are doing so for the same reasons that many people dislike Cali....but, take what you will from that. Have a good one ✌🏻
I moved here last Monday from Georgia lol. This video is SPOT ON from what I've witnessed. I LOVE it here so far!
Wow! I'm in Ga now and thinking about moving to ND in the summer
Bismarck doesn't have the mosquitoes. Thank you for vlogging.
I lived in Fargo for six years. The reason it doesn't get much snowfall is because there are no large bodies of water nearby. However, like she said the snow you do get tends to stick around for a while once the ground freezes, and you also get very windy conditions which creates what are called "ground blizzards". Fargo's winters are NOT as gloomy and overcast as Chicago (where I now live) but the roads and highways can get VERY icy. December is a dark month yes, but that's why you put up your holiday lights to brighten the mood. January? You just have to soldier through it. By the end of February, it is still light outside until past 6pm. The days quickly get longer and longer quickly once you pass that winter solstice. Summers are pretty nice with the 9:30pm sunsets.
I can't imagine what people think of Fargo winters who have never lived here. Lived in ND all my life. From Veterans day to St Patrick's day is like living in the Arctic.
Winters differ from one year to the next. It can be a somewhat mild winter one year and the next winter will be horrendously bad. Example, 2014-2015 winter was above zero only twice and that winter lasted a whole 6 months. It was an extremely depressing time. I've some a bunch of those years living on minnesota/north dakota.
@@jnorb8633 I moved to Fargo in April 2013, so 2013-14 was my first winter there and I remember that being the coldest of the six years I spent there. 2014-15 I remember being sliiiiightly less cold than the previous year. By that point, though, I think I was more acclimated to the cold.
The wind stopped one day, and everyone fell over
North Dakota does not salt the roads in the winter, although sand is used for traction. Minnesota uses salt in the winter though, so thats where the confusion comes from.
I’m in Fargo, ND! I attend NDSU and I love it! I hope you are doing well!
I’m really enjoying it too!! Thank you ☺️
Hi Kendra! Just got my admission offer to attend NDSU! would be grateful if you connect. wld love to ask some questions. I'm coming from a very tropical country and I've lived in the capital city my whole life!
Are you there already ?
Here's a tip, if you want to see more hills try traveling more west and try going to Medora musical in Medora, ND, or an NDSU Bison game in Fargo, or thunder road family fun park, also in Fargo, or Skyzone, a trampoline park
Thunder road was fun! We definitely checked that out. Thanks for the recommendations!
Your video was a great help in answering some questions I had about moving to Fargo. Thank you!
I moved from Oakland, Ca to Boise, Id and now am planning to move to Fargo next month. It seems like a really nice place to live with good quality of life.
I am looking forward to experiencing life in North Dakota.
Thanks again. :)
I moved to Minot North Dakota 2 months ago from Florida but i learned from a few locals that once you get used to the cold you won't have to layer as much when your body naturally adapt to it which i understood would take a few winters tho.
I feel like this is true! My husband is still a t-shirt and shorts guy in the winters unless there’s wind chill. It makes most people laugh 😆 I’d say i bundle up now less than i originally did but it’s more so in circumstances where i know I’m only going to be outside for a short while so i just put up with the temps vs have to wrestle with all the layers.
I’m moving to the western part of ND in three months. Looking forward to being in a small town. Currently living close to Seattle with insane traffic and high population density. So done with this. Thank you for the winter heads up! 😃❄️✨🥶☃️
I hope you enjoy ND. I quite like it, but it's not for everyone.
@@andrewhuston4510 western North Dakota is a whole different beast
Western nd is great!
Thank you! I'm thinking about moving to Fargo after I finish nursing school here in South Dakota (originally from CA) and this helped a lot
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching 🤗
Hello, im from Sacramento. What a total shock it must be living there. The cooler summers must be nice. Its 103 today in Rancho Cordova. Im just a little scared of the winters. U have to really layer. Good luck in ND. Good video from Sacramento
Thank you!! It was a transition for sure. I nearly forgot what that heat is like 🥴
Winter back in the 90s were much worse. 1996-97 was definitely the worst I lived through (I know in the 80s had some really bad ones too) we had 116 inches of snow that year and I have no clue how many blizzards. Then in the spring, it all melted making for record breaking flooding.
I love Fargo. It will always be home no matter where I may move. Love watching your review ❤
Were did you move to and why?
The winter of 96-97 was my first year living here. It was horrid. I thought there was an ice age..... Up here, we don't worry about polar bears. We just try and survive.. Polar bears are the last thing on our minds. We actually feel sorry for them because it is so cold 🥶.
@@alexan6118 1996-97 was the year of the devastating floods.
@@beachaddict7653 military life has brought me to many amazing places. Still living the military life and not sure where our "forever home" will be yet. 😀
what about the floods? I heard Fargo has had problems with the Red River floodiing in the spring...
There have been floods, but that only effects homes/buildings along the river.
The floods are only bad for people who live around the river but it’s fun bc when your in school sometimes you get to go out and bag sand
My plans have updated!! We leave Palmdale, end of February. Possibly the 22nd. And off to Fargo we move.
How exciting! Wishing you all safe travels!
Gloomy weather doesn't upset me at all. Also I like foggy mornings and frosty short days of winters. Though considering wear some eyes protection concerns me a bit.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
Great Video! I want to move to Fargo, ND. What positions do they have there? Is it hard to move there without knowing anyone there?
Thanks for posting!
It’s hard to move anywhere without knowing anyone honestly. It would get lonely! I’d say the only major disadvantage i could think of being here alone vs somewhere else alone is that if you get stuck in the snow somewhere you won’t have family to call. That being said, people pull strangers out all of the time. Everyone is pretty kind about that. Also, there are all kinds of positions available! You can check Fargo jobs on Indeed.com 😊 i hope this helps!
Hi Sarah
I enjoyed watching your video
I’m in California and thinking about moving to North Dakota ... can you recommend me places neighborhood to rent apt ?
Hello! Honestly, I don’t have any complaints about any part of Fargo i have come across. Moorhead, MN is the neighboring city and is also a great option! I’d just choose a place based off or rental reviews so you know people like living there, and it’s safe. Hope this helps!
Hi, great information thank you! I'm moving from California to ND in 10 days, just me and my 2 dogs. I will be North near the Canadian border so buying the Parka 😁. My main concern is the drive there, any pointers would be much appreciated. Happy I found you!!
DON’T BREAK ON ICE!! Take things slow, don’t be afraid to stop for a day if the weather is rough. Give someone you trust your location. Hopefully you’ll make it before the weather gets wild!
@@Blessingsbeautyandbravery I'm so trying to get there before the wild weather, thanks again great advice!
@@bekind7478 welcome to North Dakota, try to get to know Rick Becker on Facebook. He has excellent videos on the philosophy that built the safest and freest state in the union.
Most of her advice is Fargo specific, not for the whole state. Fargo is an outlier amongst the other cities and towns of ND. I grew up in Fargo and we are more similar to MN than we are to the rest of ND.
thank you for this! i’m 19 and moving to fargo with my 20 year old cousin into a house this july. it’s my first time living anywhere but missouri, and i’m leaving my family behind! i’m not currently in school so i’m stressed about finding a job/commuting to work during storms. does work/school get cancelled often because of the weather? do you work from home? are jobs more lenient with points and time off when regrading the weather? the job i’m at now would kill me for being late cause of the weather
Places are definitely lenient if you are snowed in or there is a blizzard! There are so many jobs here, i don’t think finding one would be too hard 🤍
They plow the roads when it snows sometimes they get heavy snow that school may close for a day or depending how long the storm last ... but overall you shouldn't have to worry about your kids missing school much get snow tires for your car and you should be fine if you have rear wheel put heavy sandbags in the trunk front wheel drive is best even better is 4×4 recommended but not needed just like I'd reccomend a nice jacket for $250 compared to a jacket from Walmart at $100 talking about cold weather gear they have down jackets which are nice and lightweight jackets but if your jacket gets wet the down gets useless but I doubt you will get it wet anyway ... sythentic is good for wetter weather types as it won't snow anyway unless its freezing but I reccomend both a down and synthetic just incase .... they also make synthetic down which basically mimics down jackets which is brilliant because unlike down you can't get synthetic wet and it still will keep its warmth something down can not do I reccomend getting a pair of snow boots make a emergency kit for your car for cold weather you don't want to get stuck somewhere without the right equipment to survive through the night that being a good sleeping bag I'd recommend a nice -40 bag and a linear maybe to go inside the bag for extra warmth your going to want this incase you get stuck somewhere and cannot provide heat like a fire to keep you warm keep water in your car and a way to start fire food and all that and you should be fine
@@jackwilliams5474 no lmao
I removed the user you were corresponding with from my channel- it’s not a place for pervs and i want you and everyone else to feel safe and welcome to comment! Hopefully you didn’t even see his response 🤢 I truly hope you’ll love it here!
@@Blessingsbeautyandbravery i didn't see it! thank you i really appreciate it! and i'm loving it! i have a good job and i'm going back to school. snow in october is weird to see tho! i've gotta buy myself a coat!!
It seems like there I'd a fair few people moving here from california. Be prepared for friendly people who actually give a damn about you. Until you act stupid. Most of us are not fans of stupid people
Hey, thank you for the info 👍🏻 I noticed it’s 4 years ago lol but, we are wanting to move from the UK (family of 5) and Fargo seems to fit a lot of what we are looking for. I am not sure if this is a silly question so please bear with me lol but we love a beach, is there any beaches at all (Fargo, or surrounding areas). We are also considering Texas (outside of Houston) would you say these areas are vastly different in terms of schools, crime, healthcare and amenities? Sorry for the long winded question, and no offence to anyone we are just really wanting to make the move and are stuck with where that suits our wants and needs lol
Good schools, beach, potential for business, affordability, low crime. Weather isn’t really a big thing for us as we love snow sports and also love the sun lol so weather not really an issue.
Thanks in advance and hope to hear from you 😊
I’ll lead by saying i don’t know much at all about Texas, BUT as far as beaches go there are no “true” beaches here that I’m aware of. Certainly no ocean nearby! The closest think we have come to a beach is Detroit lakes in MN and coming from California and loving the ocean i can say it’s not much of a comparison 😅 my daughter loves finding the hermit crab shells in the sand there though! It’s about 40 minutes from here I’d say. I actually haven’t been to other lakes around here even though there are an abundance of them so you might want to search lakes in this area and check out the photos posted on Google! On the East Coast on MN is Lake Superior which is far more like an Ocean but that would take several hours to get to. I’m not totally sure what the landscape looks like there as i haven’t been myself but i hear it’s beautiful! Schools here- another topic I’m not terribly familiar with because I’m going to be homeschooling but the Fargo Moms facebook group would be an excellent resource for those questions. There are two major hospitals here and clinics everywhere but the coverage might be vastly different in the US from the UK. We don’t have the best healthcare system here but I’ll say i love the providers here more than where i moved from and they have served my immediate and extended family very well. There is crime in Fargo and Valley News Live on facebook will share a lot of major things happening locally here. I’d just remember that the more people in an area, the more crime there will be. When you get into the outer parts of town and the smaller towns around Fargo, there’s less crime. I haven’t had any close encounters with crime out here myself. Once a very intoxicated man was lingering and leaning on our vehicle outside and we called the police and they took him in. He was a part of a hit and run a few streets away and it was not really a huge issue. He mistook our car for his in his state from what i gathered. Other than that it’s been very smooth sailing. I hope that helps and definitely check out those Facebook resources if you’re thinking about moving here!
@@Blessingsbeautyandbravery thank you so much for the reply / info. We are really now starting to understand how diverse the states can be, and appreciate that our journey / research is very much at the beginning 🙈 we are also looking at NC and SC 😂 anyway thank you again! 😊
I have really good things about NC! I hope you guys find the right place for your family!
@@Blessingsbeautyandbravery thank you for your replies! Yes NC seems to be looking promising at the moment. Although it seems there was a storm that hit the east coast especially SC, 🙈 but apart from that, so far so good on the research of NC so fingers crossed we may have found somewhere. 🤞 thanks again hope you have a great day! 😊
I moved here from Cali about the same time you did. I live way out in “the bush” as they call it around here up near the Canadian border. One thing that struck me that was different was that people go shopping and leave their car running or the keys in the ignition while in the store. And no cars are stolen! This place is safe!
That’s not Fargo! If you go into Fargo, do not leave your car running like that or it will get stolen.
@@thorkappabrosilon
I’ve been to Fargo, totally different demographic than up here. I always lock my car doors when I leave me car in Fargo.
@@ffarmchicken You must be up by Rugby or thereabouts?
Getting ready to move to Grand Forks from Temecula, CA. Wish us luck !
@@ta1410
Bring a jacket! ;)
Grew up 50 miles west of Fargo. Winter? Guys - sweat pants under your jeans, etc. Mittens, not gloves. ND snow doesn't melt, it just blow around until it wears out. Fargo has a decent and growing pub crawl area. Triple D has done a couple of vids there. Summer is short but grand. ND is flat. If you stare into the west long enough, you'll see the back of your head. 🙂 Great, honest vid!
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏🏻👏🏻, Thank you so much for sharing your video, it was so awesome, seems to be a cold place tho, isn’t it? Well, I appreciated your video a lot. May God bless you and your husband…
I just moved to rugby north Dakota from California and I am not going to go back I have been here in rugby north Dakota for six months now and yes it is cold here and in the winter if you don't have heating oil or any heater then things freeze here and it is windy here and cold wind but I still love it here and it is hard to get a job here because there is a click here and if you are not born here then they don't want to hire you here but it is cheaper to live here I bought a house for 91k and you can't bye a house that cheap in California that is why I love rugby north Dakota and the property tax is cheaper here.also there is no beaches here.
Lots of snow this winter. Homeless everywhere. Most businesses owned by corporations and very bad corporate culture. Cheap rent and good pay. Stressful.
When the city of Fargo reaches 200,000 people, I move back to Wahpeton, ND.
Some people say that they don't like Fargo because there are no hills . I actually think that the flat landscape has its advantages. When there is freezing rain, I am glad there is no hills. The only places you have to worry about is the overpasses. Bismarck has so many hills. I used to live there. It is a nightmare when there is freezing rain and ice. That is probably why Fargo has a bigger population. Driving around Fargo is so much easier. All the streets and avenues all run straight and they are numbered. I don't get lost in Fargo. Bismarck Mandan is another story. The only thing I don't like about is the long winter, far from family, and fishing sucks. I miss the Missouri river. Another thing, flooding is a problem, but the city is protected by the dike, and eventually the diversion. You don't have to worry about flash floods, like in Rapid city. There are no hills. It is a slow flood. You have weeks to prepare and sandbag. During the summer, flooding is rare, spring is when it can happen.
Are there alot of bugs?
I'm actually planning to move to Fargo from California, I'm not to far from where u actually moved from is it worth it
I am looking to move out there in ND from Florida lol and I ended up in your channel. I love itttt God bless you!
Thank you!! I’m so happy you found it useful!
I am in Minot and the key to the men staying warm is UnderArmour. And waterproof boots. 😊
Thanks for the info, considering moving to Fargo/ Moorhead in August or September. My wife is from Albany MN, by St. Cloud & has family including her mom in Moorhead. She’s in education & Im a chef, we’re in our 50’s so it might be a little tougher. We did live in Mankato MN for 11 years in the 90’s. Just listed our home in Raleigh NC, looks like homes are in the same price range. Very grateful…
hello do you know if Fargo is diverse? like when you walking down the street do you see people of color?
My winter “fit” as they would call it in Massachusetts where I moved from 2 years ago: 2 pairs of pants like you said, thick wool socks on top of regular socks, insulated boots, 2 tshirts, a sweater, sweatshirt, and winter coat.
I don’t know why I dress like this while out and about honestly, I’m getting used to the extreme cold and basically dress in jeans, boots, tshirt and a coat on the farm. I’m in Slope County. South western corner basically, it is probably as cold and snowy but way windier.
Awesome video. I been in Fargo for 2 years now. I just joined your page.
Thank you! It’s pretty great here so far.
I’m moving from south Florida to Minot in a couple of weeks and this video was helpful
THANK YOU 💗✨
Thank you for this! I’m super interested in moving to New Salem, ND from The Bay! I think my biggest concern is interacting with racist/unwelcoming residents. As a single PoC, I’m moving there to be an English teacher! So I definitely prefer living in a rural area and then traveling into the city.
I’m sorry you even have to think about that. Fargo is fairly diverse which I’m thankful for being used to California! I hope that no matter what you do you find a community deserving of your presence!
Actually, we are fairly welcoming people all over our state. I live in a small town (300ish people) and the only time they become “unwelcoming” is if cops are continually at your place, you are telling them how they now have to do things...we are fairly humble people, enjoy getting to know others, and are curious. I can honestly say I have not seen the racism. Hope you enjoy it😊
I know this was awhile ago but yes nd has a lot of racists but I doubt you'll be able to see it or point out who is, because despite it people around here tolerate but not exactly except if you get what I mean and same goes with the LGBTQ community
Living "rural" in ND means you sometimes get snowed in until the plows can get to you in a day or two.
Watching from Greece (like to know about living in USA's north states).
The weird thing for us here, is the enormous distances you have there. I drive 5 minutes to reach a beach for swimming, 25min to reach downtown with its vivid nightlife and 1 hour to reach mountains, forests and traditional taverns....
Visiting Montana, Dacota, Idaho seems a good experience though, because of the country's easy going life ( I suppose 🙂).
By the way... first time I learn about Fargo was from Coen brother's movie with the same title...
We also had easier access to various places in California! That’s been an adjustment for sure! I’m sure Greece is beautiful- definitely a place I’d love to see one day!
@@Blessingsbeautyandbravery Imagine you are in an expensive restaurant. You eat small quantities from various dishes. In that way you experience many flavors in one night.
A country about sea and mountains, nightlife and tradition in a package twice ( i think ) smaller than Montana...
Less fuels ...😂
Yes the USA is huge if you’re coming from Europe . Each state is the size of an entire country
I live in minnesota and would like to move to a conservative state in a small city or large town with very little crime, where i can live quietly in peace, and not deal with leftists, shootings, gangs, home invasions, car jackings, leftists, etc.
Avoiding people with different opinions than you will likely be difficult, but Fargo definitely doesn’t have much of the other mentions! Best of luck to you.
Utopia doesn't exist.
Hello from Vallejo, California...I'm moving to Jud, North Dakota.
Wow, i lived in American Canyon for middle school! Welcome to the Midwest!
I lived between Dixon and Davis for several years.

Fargo is the San Francisco of ND. We all wish we could give it to Minnesota.
Have you ever been to San Francisco? While i see the point you are trying to make…apples and oranges for sure.
This video was super helpful...thank you❣️

Interesting, your take on living in Fargo. I grew up in Grand Forks, lived in Fargo from 1969-75, and in Minot from 1976-85. I also lived in San Francisco 17 years and Florida for 20 years so I found your comparisons interesting, too. Some wag described the seasons in Grand Forks as "July, August and Winter."
It snows here in North Dakota around October 30
I was born and lived in North Dakota all my life. I think you are an extraordinarily couple to move from California to North Dakota. Welcome… A year late…tonight was the first time I watched your videos.
Thank you! We appreciate it 🤗
Greetings it's Daniel I'm hoping to move to Fargo North Dakota one of these Days. I wonder what do they have in the way of living arrangements.
There are many affordable apartments as well as houses!
Beware of a certain Fargo car dealer!
A great way to meet people in Fargo is when one goes to church, we have found that the good church folks are the most welcoming and through the various activities of the church we came to feel right at home correctly. The people are Fargo are so warm and friendly. Bison football is very big in the community as thousands attend their home games; and, there are so many delightful community events during the Christmas season that are just beautiful and uplifting. Before long one even comes to appreciate some of those tasty Lutheran bake goods; and, the delicious Catholic Lenten fish suppers on each Friday of Lent. Yes, Fargo is truly a wonderful place to live for it is a city which people truly care about one another that make living in Fargo both a privilege and a blessing.
Hi Sarah! Great video, thanks. I moved to Fargo 13 years ago from Oregon. I'll never move back!
Thank you! I agree! It’s a lovely place to live ♥️
Hi! I was born and raised in Moorhead, MN and lived either in Fargo or Moorhead until 8 years ago when I moved to the Oregon Coast. I'm considering moving back, however, I just love the ocean & mountains. I'm scared I will miss them. However, I miss my lifelong friends and feeling like I'm living in civilization. It feels so rural here. Also yes, healthcare is severely lacking. Am I just homesick? I don't know. I currently have an excellent state job with a great Public Employees retirement plan. So confused....missing home. ❤❤❤
Not sure if anyone already commented this, but ND doesn’t salt roads. There’s an anti-icing agent that gets sprayed on the roads, also, sand.
Thank you our families have moved to North Dakota and it scares us to death so you've been very helpful
Fargo is like Minnesota.
I'm Old. I'm Retired. And I'm moving from Wisconsin to Fargo. I don't know about this year? Because I really don't like moving in Winter. But maybe next year for sure after Winter. I had some other questions for you. But don't remember what they were?
But I'm going to need a good car after I get there. What's it's like buying a good car there? 🤔
just came across this video! Thanks alot Sarah
You’re welcome! I’m glad it was helpful!
Oh you darn Tuten
I may move into Fargo from NY state. We are debating between Hawley MN, Fargo, and.... FlowReeDah. Im leaning more towards Faaaargo!
I am considering ND only because I want to be very close to the Canadian border. I love Canada and currently live in CA. I have looked up all the towns very close to the border. Do you have anything to mention about close to the border? The houses close to the border of Canada are affordable and that is another reason I want to be there. It has been very cold in CA where i am and I highly recommend merino wool or paca base layers. It is very important. I also have technical wear for winter and it has really helped.
Any more update about Fargo? ;)
Hopefully soon 🤗
Summer it can be windy and the winters are sucky🤣
The coldest day ever recorded in North Dakota was on February 15, 1936, when the temperature plunged to 60 degrees below zero at Parshall.
Hola, aunque no puedo entender todo lo que dices agradezco tu video porque estoy pensando mudarme allá el próximo mes, pero estoy temerosa por mis hijos no sé si es la mejor decisión
Was in Air Force in grand forks ND winter of 66. 67 that was a bad winter twenty one days below zero
I live in just north of Grand Forks and want to move south for a little less dramatic winter. But not so far south.
ND is good.
When people talk about North Dakota or Fargo first thing comes to my mind is Steve Buscemi ,his best acting roles ever
How are health care medical services in Fargo? Or even South Dakota?
