Knox offers wide-open prairie living with big-sky sunsets, friendly neighbors, and quick connections to the region. Set along U.S. Highway 2 between Rugby and Leeds in Benson County, it’s an easy drive to the fishing and festivals of Devils Lake and the county seat in Minnewaukan. For longer trips, the nearby Amtrak station links residents to the Empire Builder route across the northern tier.
Families appreciate practical school options close to home. Students are served by regional districts such as the well-regarded Leeds Public School and Rugby Public Schools, while recent graduates and adult learners can pursue certificates and degrees at Lake Region State College in Devils Lake.
Outdoors, Knox is a launch point for year-round recreation. Watch bison and migratory birds at the restored woodlands and prairies of White Horse Hill National Game Preserve, spot waterfowl at Lake Alice National Wildlife Refuge, or boat and camp at Grahams Island State Park. Anglers know the area for walleye, perch, and pike, with quiet backroads leading to hidden bays.
Everyday needs are covered, too, with regional healthcare at CHI St. Alexius Health Devils Lake Hospital and locally owned shops and services in nearby towns. Whether you’re seeking elbow room for a hobby farm, a simpler commute, or a gateway to North Dakota’s best lakes, Knox rewards those who value space, community, and the outdoors. When you’re ready to move, Agent Pronto can connect you with a top local agent for buying or selling.
