some notes form the upper Midwest

Bismarck continues to be the fastest-growing market in the Upper Midwest, and the tenth-fastest-growing nationwide, with a 1.5 percent increase in TV households over the past year. It rose three spots in the rankings to become market #139. North Platte, Duluth, the Quad Cities, and Lincoln-Tri Cities showed the largest losses in households in the region. The Quad Cities fell one spot in the rankings and Duluth fell two. Meanwhile, Fargo, Madison, and Rapid City each rose one spot in the rankings -- their number of households also declined, but not as much as the national average.
