Affordable housing, moderate rent

Beulah's cited 2024 median/estimated home value range ($194,300-$216,479) and median gross rent (~$1,104/month) both run below broader North Dakota and national comparison figures for housing value, though rent runs closer to typical statewide levels.

North Dakota's light statewide tax structure

A 3-bracket graduated income tax topping out at 2.50% (the lowest top marginal rate of any income-tax state), a combined sales tax rate near the national average (~6.89%), and a statewide effective property tax rate of approximately 0.99% all apply in Beulah.

A concentrated, industrial local economy

Beulah's coal-power and lignite-mining employment base is a real, disclosed factor in local cost-of-living stability, though this record did not independently confirm precise current wage or unemployment figures specific to Beulah this pass.
