Spacious suburban housing in Meyer
Built in the late '70s, housing in Meyer has more character than other neighboring areas. Homes represent a mix of suburban styles, from split-levels to traditional, with some modern detailing thrown in the mix. Wide windows to let in natural light are common and most homes feature either brick facades or vinyl siding painted in neutral hues that complement the neighborhood's greenery. Selling from about $240,000 to $380,000 dollars, homes in Meyer are also more spacious than those in older neighborhoods, offering two stories and three to four bedrooms. Fenced-in backyards are common too, with enough space for outdoor playsets, pools or for dogs to run around.

Berger Elementary, the center offers community exercise programs and open swim times in addition to hosting swim and diving meets for participants from all around the country.

West Fest is a local event that brings people from the area together. Held every September, this local parade is an opportunity for West Fargo's small businesses, non-profits and clubs to connect with the public, make floats and celebrate one another.

While right next door, the Family Fare Supermarket makes grocery trips quick and convenient.
