Housing Median Monthly Rent ($), by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — North Dakota

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Median monthly rents across North Dakota exhibit a clear west-to-east gradient, with higher rents concentrated in the western oil-producing region—particularly around the Williston Basin area—where several zip codes reach $1,250–$1,750+, reflecting the sustained economic impact of the Bakken formation. The Fargo-area zip codes in the southeastern corner and Bismarck-Mandan in the south-central region also display elevated rents in the $900–$1,250 range, consistent with their roles as the state's primary urban centers. Rural zip codes across the central and north-central portions of the state predominantly fall below $750, with many in the $500–$600 range, and the gray (no-data) areas likely reflect sparsely populated zones with insufficient rental housing stock to generate reliable estimates.
