Alfred, North Dakota
Alfred is an unincorporated hamlet in LaMoure County, North Dakota, United States. It was one of five towns founded by Richard Sykes. Its population is estimated at about 10 and it consists of a few houses, a licensed boarding home, a grocery store and a Protestant church, as well as grain storage bins and a boat-dock at the small lake which borders the hamlet on the northeast. Alfred is surrounded by numerous grain farms. There are no local police, fire, medical or educational services, and its post office was closed some years ago but it is far from being a ghost town, as one website alleges even while admitting it remains populated.
