Direct interstate access

Valley City sits directly on Interstate 94 at exit 292, approximately 46 miles west of Fargo and approximately 44 miles east of Jamestown.

No commercial air service locally

Barnes County Municipal Airport carries general aviation only. Fargo's Hector International Airport, given Valley City's own I-94 proximity, is the more practical commercial-air option this record found.

Genuinely car-dependent daily trips

Valley City's daily transportation runs primarily car-dependent, consistent with a small, I-94-corridor North Dakota city.
