Douglas is a city in Ward County, North Dakota, United States. The population was 93 at the 2020 census. It is part of the Minot Micropolitan Statistical Area. Douglas was founded in 1906. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, multiple business buildings on Main Street were demolished. Between 2005 and 2009, the school was razed for an unknown reason. Today, the town is a shell of its former self, with a bar being the only business left in operation.
