GF must be doing pretty good to make it that far from the airport and that's what you're worried about.
..... Not the junk yards or anything....
.... As pointed out.. Most cities growth isn't near airports. And growth is usually accompanied by decay*.
*one example is: The Lighting Gallery is moving to a new fancy storefront on the Southend. Leaving a possible future "northern" abandoned strip mall storefront...
I have never been yet but people always seem to have a good time at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival.
Now Fargo/North Dakota is gonna have their first ever.

I made a pit stop there about five years ago. Those kids ran a pretty good operation.
Credit cards and everything.
Had free advertising as people on KNOX radio were talking talking about it even back then.
A lot of people had fun at the Marshall County Fair (outside GF in Warren, MN) this weekend.
If you haven't been. It's highly recommended. Might just be the best fair in the Red River Valley.
And then catch a nighttime movie at the nearby SkyVu Drive In on your way out!
Great way to spend a summer weekend!
Hopefully you didn't try and see Kid Rock in Minot for the State Fair.
Show was canceled and the crowd was not happy about it.
Rioting Kid Rock fans trash North Dakota State Fair grounds, wild photos show
One of the newer apartments in GF has an indoor and outdoor pool, hot tubs, indoor basketball court, game rooms, theaters, gyms (fitness). And no availability.
Gonna need to build a new one.
Probably rents for a small mortgage too.
Among other factors. You can read the article yourself.
Maybe you missed the part where I wrote "cheaper" as one of the factors.
Or maybe you're good at seeing black and white.
Either way there's a shift toward more people preferring apartments over houses.
