Fargo ND may be one of the least accessible cities in the continental US relative to where people actually live. I assume they at least have an airport but it’s still going to be an all day trip, probably overnight, from where I live.

Remote areas don’t get a lot of foot traffic isn’t very helpful.

Well, unless you live in Fargo or Moorehead, Minnesota. Anyway, I presume that the IRS office is staffed in proportion to the local population.

With multiyear budget shortfalls and high costs of living in major bureaucratic hotspots? I doubt this very much. That might be a goal, but probably not one that is regularly achieved.
