2020 Map of Fargo North

About this map

The Red River of the North snakes through this modern survey of the Red River Valley, defining the state line between Fargo, North Dakota, and Moorhead, Minnesota. This map captures the urban footprint of northern Fargo near Hector International Airport and the smaller neighboring communities of North River, Oakport, and Reiles Acres. The landscape is a dense assembly of historic burial grounds and memorial sites, including the Oak Mound Cem to the north and the cluster of Holy Cross Cem, Beth-El-Cem, and the Fargo Hebrew Congregation Cem near the city center. The intricate meanders of the river highlight the tension between the expanding residential street grids, such as those in Oakport, and the flood-prone riparian zones that have shaped the development of these twin cities for generations.
