Personality snapshot

Among the 50 states and D.C., none comes out more Observant than this one. Respondents here still lean Intuitive, but far less strongly than the U.S. as a whole, giving facts and practical results extra weight. The Roles shift to match: Sentinels and Explorers both gain ground, while Diplomats and Analysts shrink. ESFJs (Consuls) are 80% more common than nationally, and ESTJs (Executives) are also well above average.

About North Dakota

North Dakota lies in the northern Great Plains, bordering the Canadian provinces of Saskatchewan and Manitoba, where the International Peace Garden straddles the border. Agriculture, especially wheat and other grains, has long anchored its economy, alongside oil production in the west. Theodore Roosevelt National Park, set in the Badlands along the Little Missouri River, recalls the future president’s years as a rancher there.
