This town located, about 35 miles south of Jamestown has only has about 76 residents. It isn’t one of the more remembered small towns in North Dakota – if you blink when you drive past, you’ll miss it – but you HAVE to check it out at least once. Here are some highlights to visiting Jud, North Dakota, and why you should check it out yourself.

Jimmy Emerson/Flickr Jud is known as the Village of Murals. The residents decided to paint murals all over the town to make their town beautiful and unique.
