Northern plains lifestyle on the Missouri River
Named for the tribe that originally lived in the area, Mandan began as a cavalry fort and became a railroad town, then a hub for ranchers and farmers. Today, it's a growing city of 24,000 residents. Like its neighbor 5 miles east across the Missouri River, Bismarck, Mandan has seen about a 20% increase in population since 2010, bringing new economic opportunities and residential development. According to Darren Schmidt, Broker/Owner with Oaktree Realtors, the cities also share a common identity. "In many ways, Bismarck and Mandan are one and the same. It's a hard-working community that enjoys hunting, fishing and other recreational amenities along the Missouri River," he says.
While the capital city offers access to health care, government employment, and other amenities, property in Mandan is relatively cheaper for commuters. The smaller city is marketing its current local businesses and courting newcomers. Further, North Dakota's oldest state park is just to Mandan's south, providing recreation and education opportunities.
