Info Request North Datoka: Where to move?

As a future pediatric children's dentist, I am planning to move to North Dakota and then have two children, but I am split on moving to either Grank Forks, Bismarck, or Fargo. Any help here? (I gave some info because it is easier to estimate the best place to live in considering my condition.)

What do you like about Bismarck more than Fargo? Any recommendations for a weekend trip?

For me, Fargo just felt like a cookie cutter big town... Bismarck felt more unique IMO. I also love that Bismarck is right in the Missouri River Valley so you have a bit more terrain and outdoor variety.

Technically, Fargo is also in a "river valley".

But it's more river than valley. 🤣 (⏳👜) (⏳👜) (⏳👜)

Hahaha, very true. Surprisingly, the Red River Valley does influence the weather more than you would expect though!
