Grand Forks is home to the University of North Dakota, whose aerospace school is one of the largest collegiate flight training programs in the world, and the city has built an economy around aviation, unmanned aircraft and research. Grand Forks Air Force Base, which flies large surveillance drones, is just west of town, and a growing cluster of companies works on drone technology nearby. Agriculture, healthcare and manufacturing round out the economy of a city that rebuilt after the devastating Red River flood of 1997.
Grand Forks International Airport is busy with UND training flights, but airline service is limited, and Fargo is more than an hour south. Flying private lets researchers, defense contractors and agribusiness executives travel directly to meetings across the region. Visitors come for UND Fighting Hawks hockey at the Ralph Engelstad Arena, the Greater Grand Forks Greenway along the river and the North Dakota Museum of Art, with East Grand Forks, Minnesota, just across the Red River.

Things to do in Grand Forks
When to go. Summer is the most pleasant time to visit Grand Forks, with warm days for the greenway and outdoor events. Fall brings UND football and crisp weather, and hockey season runs from October into March, when tickets to the Ralph are in high demand. Spring can bring flooding along the Red River, and winters are long and very cold, with frequent wind.
