About Hillsboro

Set along the Goose River in eastern North Dakota, Hillsboro is a welcoming small town midway between Fargo and Grand Forks. As the Traill County seat, it features a classic downtown anchored by a historic courthouse, local businesses, and quiet residential streets. Families appreciate the close-knit public schools and great outdoor spots like Woodland Park, which offers a community pool and shaded paths right along the water. Down on Main Street, Railroad Park showcases a vintage caboose that nods to the town's heritage. Surrounded by the open farm fields of the Red River Valley, Hillsboro gives residents a peaceful, neighborly pace of life with an easy drive to larger city amenities.
