2 GREATER FARGO MOORHEAD REGION The Fargo Moorhead MSA, with a metropolitan population of 202,025 (2009 estimate), including Cass County, North Dakota and Clay County, Minnesota, lies in the Red River Valley of the North, amidst prime agricultural land. Founded in 1871 as a place where early settlers could stake claim at the point where the Northern Pacific Railroad would cross the Red River, Fargo Moorhead is a lively, dynamic community that ranks exceptionally high on the livability scale. Called an island of economic stability in good times and bad, the area is experiencing growth in population, employment and job creation. While Fargo Moorhead literally hums with activity, the area is also known for being clean, safe, friendly, and offers a high quality of life. Fargo Moorhead enjoys a diverse industry base. The community is home to a number of national and international corporations including Microsoft, John Deere, Case New Holland, Marvin Windows, NAVTEQ (owned by Nokia), and Cat Reman, a Caterpillar company and the headquarters of Bobcat, Otter Tail Corporation and Border States Electric Supply. The community is also a regional hub for higher education, retail, financial services, healthcare and government. Fargo Moorhead is also an emerging leader in the physical sciences, information technologies and life sciences industries and is home to a growing number of innovative technology and bioscience companies, attracted to the region for many reasons. With one of the best elementary and secondary systems in the nation, education is where we really shine. Our high school students earn SAT and ACT scores that are consistently above national averages and, compared to other communities, more of our high school students graduate and more go on to college. In addition to exceptional public schools, there are 11 private schools in the community, from religious-based programs to Montessori systems. Fargo Moorhead has a student population of 26,000 and is home to two universities, North Dakota State University and Minnesota State University Moorhead, Concordia College, a highly respected private college, and vocational and business schools such as Minnesota State Community and Technical College, Rasmussen College, Minnesota School of Business and the University of Mary Fargo Center. The cornerstone of academic research in Fargo Moorhead is North Dakota State University (NDSU), a land-grant research institution. The National Science Foundation has ranked NDSU 42 nd among 517 research universities without a medical school. The university's professors are well known for their research in biotechnology, chemistry, and biocidal/antimicrobial polymers and coatings. The university benefits from partnerships with government agencies that fund research in the energy, defense, and agricultural industries. With many of the best facilities and programs between Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN and the West Coast, Fargo Moorhead is a regional health care center. The quality of our system flows from medical expertise, advanced technologies and nationally ranked specialty services and facilities. Hector International Airport in Fargo is served by Allegiant Air, Delta Air Lines, United Express and American Airlines with frequent nonstop flights to Denver, Chicago, Minneapolis, Salt Lake City, Orlando, Las Vegas, Los Angeles and Phoenix/Mesa. Amtrak service is available east and west. In addition to commercial service the Hector International Airport also serves four cargo carriers and was designated as Foreign Trade Zone #267 in Quality of Life in the Fargo-Moorhead Area Sperling's Best Places lists Fargo Moorhead among the top ten cities for its low cost of living, good job prospects and high quality of life. (2008) #3 in Children's Health Magazine's list of 100 Best Places to Raise a Family. (September 2009) Fargo placed ninth on the list of best small metros in the U.S. in Forbes 2010 report of Best Places for Business and Careers. (2010) Money Magazine recognizes Fargo for its excellent schools, low crime rate, good jobs and ease of living, ranking it 69th in the magazine s 100 Best Places to Live. (2006)

3 Fargo ranked as the 12th safest city among 369 cities in the country, according to a report by an independent research company, Morgan Quitno Press. (November 2005) Fargo-Moorhead ranks third (among small market MSAs) in the Best U.S. Cities for Relocating a Family according to a study conducted by Worldwide Employee Relocation Council. (May 2005) Fargo-Moorhead was named an All-America City by the National Civic League. (June 2000) GREATER FARGO MOORHEAD ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION The Greater Fargo Moorhead Economic Development Corporation (GFMEDC) supports business development, growth, and diversification to improve the quality of life in Cass County, North Dakota, and Clay County, Minnesota communities by attracting, retaining and expanding primary sector jobs.

The result is the Cass Clay County Economic Development Plan, a strategy for attracting investment and jobs in smart technologies and vaccine development.
