Short answer
West Fargo is its own city in Cass County, North Dakota, with its own police department and city calendar. Help Me is a place to ask your West Fargo block for small favors, like a jump start in a lot on Veterans Boulevard. Meet in public, and use West Fargo Police for official help and 911 for emergencies.
The facts, in one place
- West Fargo has its own city, police, and calendar.
- The official West Fargo calendar appears in Help Me with its source.
- Meet at a store entrance, not a quiet cul-de-sac.
- 911 works in West Fargo. Use West Fargo Police for non-emergencies.
Where the asks actually happen
Veterans Boulevard and 13th Avenue commercial lots. Sheyenne Street. Neighborhoods people name, like The Lights, Sheyenne Crossing, and Shadow Wood, which is exactly why you meet at a store entrance instead of a porch.
- Jump starts: public lots, not a dark cul-de-sac.
- Directions: the city is new to a lot of residents, so a named store is a better pin than a subdivision name.
- Events: Help Me includes the official West Fargo community calendar and links back to westfargond.gov.
Official West Fargo
West Fargo Police are the official local department, and the city website lists current numbers and online reporting. Emergency is 911. Cass County Human Services covers county benefits, because West Fargo is in Cass County, North Dakota.
Same app, different city desk
Matching is local to the metro. There is no West Fargo-only roster of helpers. There is a West Fargo police department you should call when a neighbor is the wrong tool. Helpers can apply to be reviewed by our team. Help Me does not run background checks. You can report or block any member at any time.
Help Me is not an emergency service. If someone is in immediate danger, call 911 or your local emergency number.
Questions people actually ask
