Minot's Taxable Sales Surge -- Not a New Story -- North Dakota, USA

Link here. These links are generally lost fairly soon in local, regional newspapers.
The city of Minot saw taxable sales grow more than 16 percent in the third quarter of 2010 over that same period the previous year, totaling nearly $270 million.
Williston, as noted earlier, far surpassed these numbers: grew 150 percent; $380 million; dollar figure second only to Fargo statewide.

But how about Tioga, population 1,200?

Tioga: 186 percent increase, to almost $80 million. Tioga's percentage increase was seventh in the state. That's almost $70,000 in taxable sales/Tioga resident.

Ranking of cities in the state for taxable sales, in dollars: Fargo, Williston, Bismarck, Minot,  Gand Forks, Dickinson, and then ... drum roll .. Tioga.

Williams County, home of both Williston and Tioga: $91 million more than Burleigh County, home of the twin cities, Bismarck / Mandan.
