Ward County is a county in the U.S. state of North Dakota. As of the 2020 census, the population was 69,919,[1] and was estimated to be 68,427 in 2024.[2] making it the fourth-most populous county in North Dakota. The county seat and the largest city is Minot.[3]

Ward County is part of the Minot, North Dakota metropolitan area as comprising all of McHenry, Renville, and Ward Counties.

## History

[edit]

The Dakota Territory legislature created the county on April 14, 1885, with areas partitioned from Renville, Stevens, and Wynn counties (Stevens and Wynn counties are now defunct). The county government was not organized on that date; the organization began on November 23, 1885. The county was named for Mark Ward, chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Counties during the session. Burlington was the county seat and that was changed to Minot in 1888.[4]

The boundaries of Ward County were altered two times in 1887, and in 1892, 1909 and 1910. The present county boundaries have been in place since 1910.[5]

Until 1908, Ward County included what are now Burke, Mountrail, and Renville counties; the landmass often being referred to as 'Imperial Ward' County and which was the largest county in the state at the time. In 1908, voters took up measures to partition the county. The results for that portion forming Mountrail County were accepted but the results for the portions which would become Burke and Renville counties were disputed in court, which resulted in favorable rulings in 1910.[6] When the proposed county lines for Burke and Renville counties were drawn, neither group wanted to include Kenmare and risk that city's becoming the county seat, so Kenmare was left in Ward County at the end of a narrow strip of land, commonly referred to as the 'gooseneck'.[7] One of the options reportedly considered around this time was to create a fifth county, Lake, with Kenmare as its seat.

## Geography

[edit]

The Des Lacs River flows southeasterly through the northeast part of the county before doubling to the northeast on its journey to Lake Winnipeg. The county terrain consists of low rolling hills, dotted with ponds and lakes in its southern part, and carved by drainage gullies. The area is largely devoted to agriculture.[8] The terrain slopes to the east and north, with its highest point near the southwest corner, at 2,175 ft (663 m) ASL.[9]

According to the United States Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 2,055.980 square miles (5,324.96 km2), of which 2,013.029 square miles (5,213.72 km2) is land and 42.951 square miles (111.24 km2) (2.09%) is water.[10] It is the fifth-largest county in North Dakota by total area.[11]
