Horace Mann Apartments for Rent

Wide streets lined with mature trees, combined with the picturesque Red River, help the Horace Mann neighborhood feel more like a scenic park than a residential area. Serving as the neighborhood’s east boundary, the Red River Valley is home to some of the city’s most popular parks and hiking trails.

Residents in this middle class neighborhood can choose from several recreational venues. The school yard at Horace Mann Elementary School and the plants and fauna at Riverside Gardens are two choices. For hiking, picnicking, skating, or playing ball, Mickelson Field is a good option. Oak Grove Park also provides several recreational activities, including Frisbee golf, volleyball and tennis courts, hiking trails and horseshoes. Oak Grove also has a playground and picnic area. Another Horace Mann neighborhood park, Treefoil Park, offers a large green area, walking paths and picnic area.

Part of a private school system, Oak Grove School is located next to Oak Grove Park in the southeast part of the Horace Mann neighborhood. Downtown Fargo serves as the neighborhood’s south boundary. Horace Mann families are served by two public schools – North High School and Ben Franklin Middle School. The Fargo public school system is highly regarded for academic excellence.

Visitors driving through the Horace Mann neighborhood are greeted by many vintage two story homes set on large lots. Several apartment buildings, townhomes, duplexes, and smaller homes are also available as rental properties. The sales market include multi-family units and single family homes. Housing costs are considered reasonable in this walkable neighborhood.
