A website about ghost towns in North Dakota states that as of 2012, Isabel had no functioning landmarks remaining.[4] According to the 2010 census, the surrounding Isabel township had a population of 46, which rose to 47 after the 2020 census.[3]
On October 20, 1939, a lost pet crow belonging to farmer Ben Alberts from near Brooks, Alberta was shot dead by Isabel rancher J. H. Wortman, after having travelled 800 miles south. Identification of the pet was possible through his name tag. He became lost south because he still had the animal instinct to migrate during the Fall.[6]
In 1923, the town had a church.[7]
The now-abandoned Isabel Country School once existed in the area.[4]
