Important Information for Future Renters

• Fargo was first settled in 1871 because people knew that this was the spot where the railroad would cross the river. After the Northern Pacific Railroad came through Fargo, named for the railroad's director, William Fargo, many people began to settle the land near the river for inexpensive farming. The city grew enormously following a 1893 fire that decimated what had already been built. Briarwood, a suburb of Fargo, wasn't developed until the mid-1900s. Since then, its population has increased steadily.
