(Abridged) Our sensitive (), high-resolution (FWHM $\theta_{1/2} = 220,{\rm mas} \approx2z\gtrsim1,$GHz image covering a single Karl G.~Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) primary beam (FWHM ) in the GOODS-N field contains 32 sources with $S_{\rm p}\gtrsim2,\mu{\rm Jy~beam}^{-1}$ and optical and/or near-infrared (OIR) counterparts. Most are about as large as the star-forming regions that power them. Their median FWHM major axis is $\langle\theta_{\rm M} \rangle=167\pm32,{\rm mas} \approx 1.2\pm0.28,{\rm kpc}\approx$ 0.79 kpc. In units of the effective radius that encloses half their flux, these radio sizes are $\langle r_{\rm e}\rangle = 69\pm13{\rm mas} \approx \pm11438\approx324$. These sizes are smaller than those measured at lower radio frequencies, but agree with dust emission sizes measured at mm/sub-mm wavelengths and extinction-corrected H sizes. We made a low-resolution () image with better brightness sensitivity to detect extended sources and measure matched-resolution spectral indices . It contains 6 new sources with and OIR counterparts. The median redshift of all 38 sources is . The 19 sources with 1.4GHz counterparts have median spectral index with rms scatter . Including upper limits on for sources not detected at 1.4GHz flattens the median to , suggesting that the Jy radio sources at higher redshifts, and hence selected at higher rest-frame frequencies, may have flatter spectra. If the non-thermal spectral index is -0.85, the median thermal fraction at rest-frame frequency 20GHz is 48%.
