Hoople is a city in Walsh County, North Dakota, United States. The population was 247 at the 2020 census. Hoople, named for early settler Alan Hoople, was founded in 1889. Hoople's nickname is "Tatertown."

Hoople is probably best known outside North Dakota as the location of University of Southern North Dakota at Hoople, the fictional university created by Peter Schickele. (Presumably it is an extension campus of a fictional University of Southern North Dakota, since the real Hoople is located in the northeastern, not southern, part of the state.)
