Williston at a Glance
Climate figures: NOAA 1991–2020 normals from the Williston Sloulin Intl Ap, ND station, about 1 miles away.
Planning Around the Weather
DOE's Building America map puts Williams County in the Cold climate region (IECC 2021 zone 6A, PNNL county guide). Winters in this region are long enough that freezing, not heat, is usually the main limit on units that carry water.
Freezing Nights
About 191 nights a year drop to 32°F or below, more than nine in ten U.S. places in our data, so freezing weather covers a large part of the year. Anything that holds fresh water freezes first: hand-wash stations, deluxe flush tanks and trailer plumbing. For winter dates, ask for winterized units or a heated restroom trailer, or plan on sanitizer.
Summer Hot Spells
About 21 days a year reach 90°F, fewer than most U.S. places in our data; hot spells come and go rather than lasting all summer. If your dates land in a hot spell, ask for an extra service visit on multi-day rentals and keep hand-wash stations topped up.
Job Sites and Home Projects
New Housing
About 42.8% of Williston's housing units were built in 2010 or later (ACS 2020–2024), roughly 3.8 times the U.S. share of 11.4%. That is a housing-stock figure, not a count of current projects, but it means much of the place was built recently, often as subdivisions where several crews share one site.
Newer Homes
Half of Williston's housing units were built in 2003 or later (median year built, ACS 2020–2024), newer than nine in ten U.S. places in our data. Newer lots often have a driveway the truck can reach, which makes it easier to place a unit for additions, pools or landscaping work.
Apartments, Townhouses and Rentals
The most common housing type is buildings with five or more units, about 47% of units (higher than nine in ten U.S. places in our data), followed by detached houses at about 37% (ACS 2020–2024). Apartment and condo projects bring larger crews, and a property manager decides where units go. About 53% of occupied homes are renter-occupied (ACS; owner share lower than nine in ten U.S. places in our data), so property managers and landlords often book the units for renovations and decide where they stand.
OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51 scales with headcount: 45 workers on an apartment or condo site need 2 toilet seats and 2 urinals, 210 need 5 of each. More on sizing: construction rentals in North Dakota.
Events, Weddings and Parties
An all-day festival for 5,000 people over six hours needs 38 units on the PSAI event chart, or 42 to 46 with alcohol (PSAI adds 10–20%). Every cluster of restrooms needs at least 5% accessible units, rounded up, so even a two-unit cluster includes an ADA unit.
Cold, not heat, limits the outdoor season: from late fall into spring, ask for a heated restroom trailer or units that do not depend on running water. For a party at an apartment complex or a rented home, the property manager or landlord decides where units can stand. More: event rentals in North Dakota and wedding restrooms in North Dakota.
Who to Ask About Local Rules
Williston is an incorporated city with its own municipal government. For an event on public land, or a unit that will stand on a street, sidewalk or in a park, ask the Williston city government before you book what applies.
If you rent your home, check with the landlord or property manager before a unit goes on the property.
