Great place - 6/11/2007
Overall, Fargo is a very nice place, but the downtown and Island Park are my favorite parts of the city. For its size, Fargo's downtown has a lot to offer and there are more things opening all of the time. The newer sections of the city around West Acres are not very appealing, but as someone who loves old neighborhoods, I'm a bit biased. The newer sections are really not any worse or better than any other suburban area. The more established areas of the city are quite charming, quiet and very family Read More

"culture" - 3/16/2007
in addition to all the economic reasons that make Fargo a phenomenal place to live, there's been a recent revitalization of the downtown area which has included the addition of art galleries/museums, fine dining, a world class hotel, a fun night scene, and some greatshopping. (if only there was parking to keep up with the cars) i'm always blown away when i hear fargo residents say "there's nothing to do." i find so much to do in this community, i have a hard time choosing between the endless options. if you find a night in town when there's not a concert, a reading, a show, or some event happening here, i'd be Read More

Good & Bad in Fargo - 5/18/2006
Fargo is a great place to live in many respects, but the major drawbacks here are the weather, which is horrible. Also, flying in and out of Fargo is expensive & time consuming. If you are taking a vacation, expect to spend your whole first day just traveling to your destination. Same with the last day of your vacation, you will spend all day and most of the night flying or at an airport waiting for a flight Read More
