Although the unemployment rate is low in North Dakota there are actually only about 17,000 open jobs. This wouldn't even employ all the unemployed people from Minneapolis.

Compounding the issue are a lack of housing, and the fact that over half of those positions are low paying dead end jobs like fast food, walmart, etc. It's also very far away from almost everywhere - a four to nine hour drive from the closest major airport.
