About Lincoln
Located just south of Bismarck, Lincoln is a quiet, growing community of around 4,300 residents. Originally established in the 1970s as a planned housing development, the city has evolved into a popular residential retreat. It offers a relaxed, small-town atmosphere surrounded by North Dakota prairie, all while keeping you within a ten-minute drive of Bismarck's major employers, shopping, and healthcare.
Families are served by the Bismarck Public School District, with younger children attending Lincoln Elementary right in town before moving on to Wachter Middle School and Bismarck High. The neighborhoods feature local parks and open space, making it easy to enjoy the outdoors. Plus, quick access to local highways connects you to the Missouri River, Apple Creek, and Fort Abraham Lincoln State Park for weekend outings.
