@danasims7513 4 жыл бұрын

Cyril Ahiable Hi! I apologize for my delayed response. Job opportunities were plentiful when I was in ND. That is the main reason I moved there. I met several people who were foreign born who worked in North Dakota. There are also universities that support international students and have resources that can help you connect with the local community where you live. I worked for the government and was steadily employed for almost 4 years. There’s plenty of jobs in Fargo, Minor, Bismarck, as well as the smaller cities, but it depends on the industry in which you’re interested.

Dona Harrell where are you moving from? Fargo is ND’s largest city but if you’re coming from a big city then it might seem to have a small town feel for you. I prefer Fargo myself.

@danasims7513 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Dona Harrell, it depends on what you want in a city. Valley City is a very pretty town with lots of greenery in the spring and summer. It's on the smaller side with about 7-8,000 people and it has a nice small college. It's about 90 miles away from Fargo in case you want to get to the big city sometimes.

The last few years have have been pretty good, we’ve had several mild winters in a row. But I’m not a fan of the April blizzards we keep getting…the spring weather will be so beautiful that it feels like summer came early, I break out the shorts and put the snowblower away, then get 6+ inches of snow…when I have a bunch of stuff on the deck because I’ve started spring cleaning.
