Grand Forks Shopping

Grand Forks has one of everything. Department stores, super stores, and boutiques line the streets. Shopping local is cooler than you think. Whatever you may need will only be a hop, skip, and a jump away from you. Your shopping trips may take a little longer, because you are bound to run into someone you know.

It’s big enough to have good times with sports and shows. And it is small enough so you can get around without stress. You can get acquainted with lots of people. Or if you prefer the quiet life, you also can find that here.

I love that there always seems to be something going on with sporting events, downtown events, or concerts. It’s small enough that you’re not in a city with traffic, but big enough that there is always something to do.

If you are looking for opportunity, for community, and just an overall great place to live – this is it! Greater Grand Forks has everything you need plus some, and if you desire more, major metropolitan cities are a short drive away. If you invest in this community, it will invest back in you tenfold.

From the “I Do’s” at a wedding, to the smell of roasted almonds before the game winning goal, it makes me proud to call the Ralph home. And we are just a small part of the uniqueness that makes Grand Forks, “way cooler than you think”.
