where does the western part of ND fall under in craigslist? (Fargo: rentals, living) - North Dakota - City-Data Forum

I see 3 cities on craigslist: bismarck, fargo/moorhead, and grand forks. another one is just North Dakota by itself. I guess it applies for the entire state. I'm guessing Grand Forks would be considered western North Dakota? I ask this since I plan on moving to the western part of the state, perhaps Williston, so I know where I would be looking on craiglist as far as rental or housing goes.

Uhhh-no: Grand Forks is on the far east edge of the state, about 5 hours drive from Williston.

Generally things associated with the oilfield are posted under the North Dakota section on Craigslist.

Bismarck is in the south central (but considered west)...Fargo and Grand Forks are on the Minnesota border...definately east.

so there's really no "west" part of North Dakota regarding craigslist? I guess I'll stick with the main ND section then huh?

I use either north dakota section or Bismarck but you fins alot more stuff if you look in Fargo or Billings. After living out here for a bit you realize that a 5 hour drive is not a weekend trip anymore.

LOL, yeah it's just called a day trip, not a big deal!!!

if the traffic isn't too bad, a 5 hour drive is tolerable.

I'm surprised nobody stated this before so I will. Craigslist is full of scams just about everywhere but particularly here in Western ND. Any rentals you find for Williston, Watford City, Minot, Tioga, Ray, ect are going to be scams. Do not use Craigslist for rentals. Locals don't use Craigslist much and would rather use a Penny Saver or Shopper ad instead.
