North Dakota's Data

Image of North Dakota

North Dakota is a state in the Upper Midwest (Great Plains), admitted in 1889 as the 39th state simultaneously with South Dakota. Bismarck is the capital, and Fargo is the largest city. North Dakota’s land area is about 69,001 sq mi, and it is sparsely populated with roughly 0.80 million people (2024) – one of the least populous states. The state’s landscape is characterized by prairies and farmland, with the Badlands in the west (Theodore Roosevelt National Park). It has cold winters and is a major part of the Great Plains wheat belt. North Dakota’s economy has been traditionally based on agriculture (wheat, barley, sunflowers, and cattle). In the 21st century, an oil boom in the Bakken formation in western North Dakota dramatically boosted its economy and population, giving it one of the highest GDP per capita figures in the U.S.. The state’s nominal GDP was about $75.7 billion in 2024. Other economic contributors include coal mining and energy, and some manufacturing of farm equipment. North Dakota is culturally influenced by Native American heritage and the descendants of Scandinavian and German settlers. It is known for its strong community spirit in small towns, the annual state fair, and its notable avoidance of urbanization (no major metropolitan cities).

Understanding the BLS and Inflation in North Dakota

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is a government agency that collects and analyzes economic data across the U.S., including states like North Dakota. One of its key responsibilities is tracking inflation through the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which measures how the cost of everyday goods and services changes over time. Inflation can impact everything from housing prices to the cost of groceries, gas, and utilities across the area. By tracking inflation, the BLS helps people from North Dakota understand how their purchasing power is affected and provides insights for businesses and policymakers.

What This Graph Represents

This graph shows inflation trends in North Dakota using the CPI, highlighting how prices have changed over time. The x-axis represents time (months and years), while the y-axis represents price levels. If the graph moves upward, it means the cost of living is rising, which can affect everything from rent to gas prices. A flatter or downward trend suggests that inflation is stabilizing or decreasing. Keeping an eye on inflation is important for people from North Dakota when budgeting for housing, wages, and daily expenses.
