NPR's Marketplace
Toddy Melby
"Black Gold Boom"

Kendra Hill and her husband moved to rural North Dakota's oil fields so he could earn double the wages he made in their native Washington. Now they've bought a house, they have a five-year-old and a baby, and even as the oil boom slows, they're planning to make North Dakota their home. Todd Melby talked with Kendra as part of his series, "Black Gold Boom."

About McKenzie County

In Watford I got to go to my first National Park. I made some friends and we went to the badlands and saw things we never heard of before like jackrabbits and mule deer. In my opinion Watford is the best city ever!
