The story so far
from Wikipedia & the U.S. CensusFrontier is a city in Cass County, North Dakota, United States. The population was 195 at the 2020 census. Frontier is located south of the city of Fargo and is located roughly six miles southwest of that city's downtown. Frontier was founded in 1976. Since Frontier's founding, the adjacent city of Fargo has grown to the point where it almost completely encompasses Frontier's city limits. Only a small gap on the city's southwest corner keeps Frontier from being a complete enclave community within Fargo's border.
Frontier was established in 1976. Between the 2010 and 2020 censuses its population fell from 214 to 195 (-9%). Half of its homes were built before 1978.

That’s true of most small towns. It doesn’t mean Frontier has no history, only that no one has written up a nomination. The closest listed place is George and Beth Anderson House in Fargo, 4.7 miles away.
