Just wanted to toss this out there...why does Grand Forks not have neighborhoods?  

Sure, there are labels that various people use to describe certain parts of town, and the land records seem to suggest that there are subdivisions and the whole bit, but I can't think of more than a couple of areas that are even minimally defined.  It seems that cross-streets and other significant landmarks are about the only way to identify residential areas.  You can literally drive along the same street for miles and notice nothing but the varying ages of the homes.

Neighborhoods here (even some of the newest subdivisions) lack obvious names, conspicuous signage, distinctive entrances, even remotely visual boundaries, and other distinguishing features.

Is there something to this?  Am I missing something?

There is downtown  - near Northside - Riverside park - Belmont park - Lincoln Park - Med park - Richards west - University & park - North Washington - South Washington -  there are more but most are related to streets or landmarks  - schools etc.
