Why Fargo?
-
So with the snow yesterday and today I got to thinking why do I live in Fargo and go to school here? I think that its because of the very nice summers and spring/fall (except for this shit). I also really like the town as a whole. Its like the cities in that everything you need is up here but its not a shit hole like MSP. I also like the people up here. Not you fuckers, but everyone else.
jk. Everyone up here is friendlier than down in the cities and you can always find someone to lend a helping hand.Why do you live here?

Pretty much sums it up for me too.
-
I'm from Minot, ND.
-
I can't afford to get the hell out
Nearly ended up in school at UofM-TC (glad I didn't) but ended up at MSUM instead. Never had a real desire to move too terribly far away for college (originally from NW Cass County).
Will probably start seriously looking at moving to MPLS this fall.

I moved to Fargo for school. I'm originally from Fergus Falls, to be honest it's boring there but I was a lot happier living there. I like being in the outdoors, whether its hunting, fishing, bowfishing, 4 wheeling, etc. Im not much for living in the city, I'd rather have the peace and quiet of the country and the freedom, I can't exactly step out my door up here and shoot my guns or be as loud as I want to, or be in a 5 mile radius of 10 lakes. Most people up here seem to be nice, and the city has some benefits that small towns dont have, but yet not the crazy population of the Metro area. I wouldnt mind staying up here after school, just probably move out of town.

I have lived in West Fargo all my life. I love it here because if there is ever anything I need I can simply go around my neighborhood and get it. I know alot of people and most of them are the right people to know. I love it here because its like a big city without the overpopulation part. Were not too far away from the lake country in Minnesota or the hunting country out west in ND. I also like the fact that were in the center of the countinent so that means no hurricanes, not a high possibility for a terrorist attack, no tsunami's, no crazy people to boost crime rate (except for the meth tweekers that come out at night), and mainly because of the friendly people that live here. When I go to college I may move somewhere similar to ND but would like to come back after I graduate.
Thats why.
3 things i couldn't live without.........

Youngin you forgot one thing...we also live by the largest concentration of nuclear missile silo's in the US too. The Dakota's would be obliterated if a nuclear war ever happened:icon_flower:

havnt they deactivated most of them?

Who knows. Even if they say they have who knows if they really have...why would they spend all that money to build them just to shut them down, I doubt that we'd really disarm. Either way, I'd be willing to bet Russia or whoever attacked us (if anyone ever did) would take care of this area just to be safe. At least we'd get a pretty fireworks show before we were turned into ashes
I do know my dad had to work on some of the silos awhile back and had to go through extensive background checks and sign some secrecy affidavits(sp) or whatever before he was allowed to work in there.

didnt a guy buy a missle silo and turned it into his house?

Thanks Bill! -
I've been here my whole life except for maybe 6 months when I was a baby. It's not too big, but not too small either. It's just the right size where if you want to go out shopping, you don't have to make it an all day event by driving 20 miles while fighting crazy amounts of traffic. If there were more great jobs in this area I would probably stay here my whole life, but I'll more than likely end up moving to the cities after school.

I moved up here 6 years ago this summer. Originally for summer school i was 16 at the time my family in arizona told me it would be better because of my dad, I come to find out im stuck in this hell hole!!! I never liked here the day i got off the plane! Yes i do have good friends and a very beautiful woman that i met up here and she and them are the ones that are keeping me here, if it were different i would be back home going to school and hopefully running my own buisness. I do plan on doing this in a year or so. I miss the west so much there is 50 times more things to do there then here. Hell going to san diego,L.A.,santa barbra etc...is about the same time travel as from here to the cities and thats doing 80 all the way. I dunno i guess this shit hole has grown on me but i cant wait to go back home and start my family!
