Growing up in ND - 5/18/2011
I lived in ND all of my life until my son got married to a gal from MN. I moved to the city in which she lived. Sometimes I regret leaving my family behind to go to another state, but now after the oil field stuff, I can't see myself ever living there again. They no longer maintain their streets. I went through the town in Oct and now again in May and WOW... the streets are horrible... no one there takes responsibility for their homes or streets anymore. The trailer court on the south side looks worst then a ghetto....the holes are so big you can't even drive in the trailer court without worries of falling through to china. No lie the roads are like this throughout town. They are collecting the mega money they get from the oil patch people and just pocketing the money not spending it back into the roads or anything. In a couple of more years you will need cranes to lift people out of the holes that are growing. in the T-Rex plaza parking lot by Conoco it is so bad that you Read More

Conservative But Nice - 3/3/2010
I have lived in Dickinson for over 10 years. It is a very conservative town, but the university helps bring in some diversity. I enjoy the open country and the beautiful badlands. Wildlife is abundant and there is never too much traffic. It is a peaceful place to live. However, you need tough skin to tolerate the weather here. This is a land of extremes and you will experience amazing weather Read More

Stay away - 1/31/2007
I moved here awhile back for a job and I regret it everyday. Thankfully, I'm moving away soon. This town is so conservative and xenophobic it consistently leaves me amazed. I have lived many places in my life, mostly small-sized cities, and I have never felt more uneasy anywhere. If you are not a Christian, a Republican or someone who thinks McDonalds is the best thing on the planet, then you probably won't fit in here. There has been outright hostility to me voicing some of my rather tame liberal views. I have never been treated like that.

And you would think, given there is a small University here, that there would be at least some sort of attempt to host some events that raise cultural awareness. Nope. Nightlife? Nope, unless you count a couple worthless bars. In fact, the one and only time my wife and I went into one of these places some drunk meathead grabbed her butt within 5 minutes. I am not kidding.

On the other hand, if you are a conservative, and Read More
