what part of a state would you least like to live in

North Dakota: Does it really even matter out there?

Yes actually, North Dakota is a mix of small cities that are relatively conservative but at least have the urban amenities and feel like civilization, horrible messes of sprawl and emptiness that basically isn't livable. I grew up in the first category, but this is a pretty good example of what ND mostly is now.

Yeah that was my reaction. The worst part is most of those places didn't even exist when I lived there.

But it's all not THAT bad, closer to where my parents live is like here which if you showed me just images of could probably pass for a more residential neighborhood in Minneapolis if it wasn't for most of the houses having driveways and garages and that so few cars are parked on the street. The real problem with Bismarck though is that even near the city center the public transportation is very lousy.
