These Are The 10 Smallest North Dakota Towns For 2024
North Dakota Challenge: Visit all of the 10 Smallest Towns in North Dakota.
To be honest, I had only heard of 5 or 6 of these. So, I’m sincerely curious. How many of my listeners have been to any of these towns? Better yet, how many people actually have heard of any of these towns or actually know where they are located in the state? Challenge excepted?
North Dakota is not for everybody, and that’s why there’s plenty of wide open spaces.
However, there’s so much beauty if you take the time to look for it. The Badlands to the Red River Valley and everywhere in between. These 10 smallest towns in North Dakota are spread out throughout the state. All of the population estimates come from the United States Census Bureau via the World Population Review.
What’s ironic about these 10 towns, is that they all have a population of 10 or under.
Most do not have any sort of an operating business. Pretty close to ghost towns. Small town living with maybe a neighbor or two.
What’s also interesting about the 10 smallest towns for 2024 in North Dakota, is that they are the exact same 10 towns for 2023. All 10 towns are in the exact same place as last year as well. So, little or no procreation is going on in these towns. Go figure.
So let’s get to it. These are the 10 Smallest Towns in the Roughrider State. Giddy up ya’ll. Let’s enjoy some small-town charm where they don’t have to suffer through a summer of road construction like we did last summer in Bismarck Mandan. AMEN!
The 10 Smallest Towns in North Dakota for 2024!

BISMARCK, ND – It is the opinion that federal law does not prevent the state from auditing P&A and even though P&A possesses confidential records, N.D.C.C. § 54-10-22.1 and 42 C.F.R. § 51.45(c) authorize the state auditor and the employees of the auditor’s office, to review the records without detriment to P &A.
Also, whether Rule 1.6 of the North Dakota Rules of Professional Conduct for licensed attorneys prohibits P&A from disclosing to the State Auditor the contents of a client file for the purpose of conducting a non-financial performance audit under N.D.C.C. ch. 54-10 when the requested file includes information about individuals and businesses in the private sector who chose to contact P &A.
This issue was already addressed in a 1995 opinion of this office regarding P&A. The 1995 opinion highlighted that P&A has authority to contract with private attorneys to represent private individuals. 17 During that performance audit, auditors asked to see billings from the contracted attorneys. 18 P&A redacted the names of the individuals represented by the contract attorneys under the rules for attorney-client privilege or attorney-client confidentiality. 19 The names of individuals seeking services of P&A are protected under N.D.C.C. § 25-01.3. The opinion stated:
Thus, P&A’s records which indicate to whom its services were provided are available to the State Auditor for performance audit purposes. The State Auditor has
been given access by P&A to its records other than the attorney’s billings. Therefore, the State Auditor already has access to the names of the persons to whom P&A
provides services. State law requires that the State Auditor and his employees must keep such information confidential.
Here, P&A has not identified a specific record. Given that, I rely on the past opinions declaring that records made confidential by N.D.C.C. § 25-01.3-10 are available under N.D.C.C. § 54-10-22 to the State Auditor and the Auditor’s employees for audit purposes.

Angler may have broken North Dakota’s perch record on Devils Lake
FARGO, N.D. (Valley News Live) – A Wisconsin angler may have reeled in a new North Dakota state record yellow perch on Devils Lake.
Alan Hintz of Stevens Point, Wis., caught the fish while fishing with Perch Patrol Guide Service’s Tyler Elshaug. North Dakota Game Warden Jon Peterson weighed the perch at 2.99 pounds and measured it at 16.5 inches at Woodland Resort.
The current state record perch of 2 pounds, 15 ounces was caught by Kyle Smith of Carrington, N.D., also on Devils Lake, on March 28, 1982.
The catch is still considered unofficial. The North Dakota Game and Fish Department requires a four-week waiting period to verify all details before officially recognizing a new state record.
Steve Dahl with Perch Patrol Guide Service confirmed the details to Valley News Live. Dahl said overall perch numbers on Devils Lake are down this year, but anglers are seeing more fish weighing over 2 pounds.
Devils Lake is one of North Dakota’s most popular ice fishing destinations, known for producing trophy-sized perch.
