Williston sub-forum has been added. You can still read all North Dakota forum threads on one page using the http://www.city-data.com/forum/mergeforums.php?f=38 link near the top of the North Dakota forum main page or you can select forums of your choice and display them on one page using our Subscribed Forums feature
I would have thought you would have made it a Western ND, or Oil Patch sub - forum. The oil boom is affecting pretty much the Western 1/3 of the state. More and more questions are going to come up from the Dickinson area as more development happens there.
In general, we prefer not to create sub-forum for larger geographical areas, even if there are common topics being discussed. Additional sub-forums are possible.
This makes sense since so many of the threads and posts are wondering about Williston. Everyone knows that many towns are affected by this boom, but definately not as much as Williston has. Especially with all the national attention pointing at Williston, it pretty much has made that town the target for everything Bakken. I'm guessing the people in Williston wouldn't mind a little break and attention taken away from their community, but unfortunately, WIlliston is pretty much the center of the Bakken and has always been the oil hub of the basin.
