Deer Creek is a newer, primarily residential suburb in southern Fargo, offering a mix of properties built from the early 2010s up until recently. Living here gives you easy access to Fargo's major highways and puts you just minutes from shopping and dining. The neighborhood is centered around a park and an elementary school, both within walking distance of homes — a big plus for families.
You'll see lots of ranch-style and bi-level houses packed along the streets, plus a few twin homes and townhouses mixed in. "A lot of people think the lots are pretty small," says Realtor Kaden Monsebroten of Prime Realty, who has been in the industry since 2017. "On the west side of the neighborhood, you see some bigger lots, cul-de-sacs with larger properties, square footage-wise." Some back up to the Sheyenne River, which has a very private feeling, with trees on both sides of the water. Modern farmhouse and Craftsman styles are common in the area. Homes range anywhere from the low $300,000s to the high $600,000s. The median sale price is about $370,000; more than in Osgood, a neighboring community, where it's around $350,000.
People who love being active are drawn to Deer Creek. "I see a lot of residents out running and using the walking paths, especially during the summer," Monsebroten says, adding that newcomers are often families or simply anyone seeking a modern, clean neighborhood.
Even though Deer Creek is technically in Fargo, students here attend West Fargo Public Schools. Deer Creek Elementary is top-rated and super close to home, making morning drop-offs and pick-ups quick and easy.
Deer Creek Park is the go-to spot for outdoor fun. When the weather's nice, you'll see people shooting hoops, walking the trails, kicking the ball around and letting their kids loose on the playground. Other popular spots for outdoor recreation within 10 miles:
While Deer Creek is primarily residential, you'll find a few spots for errands along 52nd Avenue, including a gas station and an auto shop. "There are also two gyms right there: a CrossFit gym and Edge Fitness," Monsebroten says. Within a 20-minute drive, you'll have even more options, including Aldi, Walmart, West Acres Mall for big-name stores, and Downtown Fargo for unique shops and diverse eats. Still, Monsebroten says most people head over to nearby Osgood, where you'll find:
Getting around from Deer Creek is simple. Interstate 29 is just 2 miles away, and Interstate 94 is about 5 miles from the center of the neighborhood. I-29 is a major north-south route through the city, while I-94 gets you to West Fargo and Moorhead. You can reach Hector International Airport or NDSU in about 20 minutes, and Sanford Medical Center is only around 6 miles away. Deer Creek also has a few bus stops for public transportation.
