F-M is on an entirely whole other level than Grand Forks. I see a lot of Manitoba license plates at West Acres on weekends. I have actually struck up conversations with a couple Manitobans at West Acres, and they tell me that they would much rather drive to Fargo to do their American shopping than Grand Forks, because they tell me F-M is a much larger city and has tons more variety of shopping. Plus I've heard that Columbia Mall in GF hasn't been doing too well. F-M is almost 3 times larger than GF, so that helps too.
