The increased activity in North Dakota has brought a flood of new experiences to North Dakota residents. For many residents who are used to a life based on small communities and agricultural business, the new fast-paced growth in your community and the big business atmosphere are almost shocking. Right now, your land values are up if you are in the Northwest corner of the state, or there is a lot of federal money involved if you are in a flood impacted area. The availability of jobs and money has created an influx of new people and a business frenzy that has not been seen in anyone’s recent memory.
