The unemployment is one of the lowest in the nation. There are many positions that go unfilled do to lack of people to fill them. The city is growing rapidly. I am not sure though what fields are in the greatest need, hourly or salaried/degree positions.

I really like Heidi Heitkamp but the rest of my congressman I disagree with . I do not agree with our current governor. The conservatives in this state are trying to set our state back decades and I feel it will hurt our state from attraction younger demographics from moving here.
