Communities Overview

Safety... a low cost of living... clean air... year-round outdoor recreation... excellent schools. That's just a sampling of reasons physicians and their families enjoy life in Fargo, N.D.
To orient you geographically, Fargo is located on the eastern edge of North Dakota, with neighboring Moorhead, Minn., just across the Red River. The combined population of Fargo, West Fargo and Moorhead is slightly less than 200,000 and growing.

Fargo-Moorhead is proclaimed as one of the most stress-free metropolitan areas in America. This value is reflected in our low crime rate, low unemployment, and low cost of living. The availability of housing, easy commute, four seasons for activities and events, 'kid-friendly' environment, and the residency program's team spirit will make your residency a valued part of your medical education.
