I work in accounting at an oil company - though our holdings are in the Bakken region up in ND and Montana - all I ever hear about is that the workers literally have nowhere to stay and many use literal work camps as shelter - simply because the regions are devoid of both infrastructure and development. Even Williston can barely keep their electricity grid up half the time because of all the new businesses setting up shop there. I know its good money for people with no experience, but we regularly get comp claims for severed fingers and limbs.
