Relocation in North Dakota
It's easy to think that North Dakota is one of
America's more boring states. North Dakotans certainly don't go out of their
way to make themselves seem exciting. North Dakota's official state beverage
is milk. And every year, Turtle Lake, North Dakota hosts the U.S. Turtle Racing
Championship. But before you start to nod off, there is more to North Dakota
than meets the eye. Holed up in a part of the country that doesn't get much
attention, North Dakota is a heaven for anyone who's ever whistled along to
"Don't Fence Me In." North Dakota is a single wide, open space that
covers flat farmland, forests and lakes (with some of best bass, perch and
walleye fishing in the world) all the way to the lunar landscapes of the North
Dakota badlands.
Outside North Dakota's big cities (big being
a highly subjective term), North Dakota's residents are spread out pretty
thin, but their diversity matches their isolation. Almost 5% of North Dakotans
are Native Americans. North Dakota has one of the largest Native American
populations of any state. Educational excellence is another of North Dakota's
pleasant surprises. North Dakota has one of best primary and secondary education
systems in the country; even given the state's small population, North Dakota
maintains 11 public colleges.
Now that you're moving to North Dakota there
are a couple facts you'll want to keep in mind:
- North Dakota's population is 642,200. North Dakota's state capital is
Bismarck.
- In 1889, North Dakota and South Dakota were slated to become states on
the same day. But given the intense rivalry between the two territories,
President Benjamin Harrison couldn't decide which one to formally admit
first. So he had his Secretary of State shuffle the admission papers so
he wouldn't know which one he was signing.
- North Dakota grows more sunflowers than any other state in America.
- Several attempts have been made in North Dakota's legislature to drop
the North and rename the state Dakota. All have been defeated.
- In North Dakota, it's illegal for bar owners to serve beer and pretzels
at the same time.
