North River, ND

Founded in 1973 right on the northern edge of Fargo, North River is one of North Dakota's smallest and quietest communities. Composed of just a couple dozen homes tucked along the Red River, it has the feel of a peaceful, private neighborhood. Living here offers an easy balance between small-scale privacy and big-city convenience, putting Fargo's shopping, dining, and job opportunities just minutes down the road. Even with its tiny footprint, North River operates as its own independent town, giving residents a close-knit community with dedicated local leadership.
