Western North Dakota is experiencing dramatic economic growth spurred on
by energy development throughout the Williston Basin and the prolific
Bakken shale play.
North Dakota logs the lowest unemployment rate in the nation at
3.4% and Williams County posted a rate of 0.9%. Some estimates place the
number of unfilled jobs in the area at 3,000 positions. Other believe
