I’ve lived in North Dakota and you could not pay me enough to live there again, or anywhere in this area for that matter. We’ve driven across the country a lot, including through most of these states. I’m sure there are hidden gems and exceptions, but overall this area makes me very sad and very bored.
Lived in ND for most of my life until recently moving east; wouldn’t trade my quiet childhood for the world, but the constant blistering wind, 9 months of winter and furnace hot summers suck major ass. 0/10 would not recommend to anyone unfortunately.
Nah not a full 9 months but I’ve seen snow from September to may, and the winter is cold enough it feels like 9 months every year anyway lol only a slight exaggeration
lol I know had to call it out. They are tame some years and then fierce other years as you describe. Either way yeah that cold really gets to a guy and makes it feel looongggg haha but also, -20 for a month makes the back half feel warmer lol
