Current Resident: It is a small town vibe, so since I have lived here my entire life practically it is like everyone knows each other.

Current Resident: I love Anaconda in Deer-Lodge County! It's a quaint little town and the people are very friendly. It has most everything that we need for shopping and it's beautiful. It has a small town feel and it seems safe. We enjoy walking on the trails in the town, especially the one above the golf course. I do wish our neighbors were more friendly, but I may have to be the one to be outgoing and to initiate conversation!... Read 17 reviews

Nearby Resident: I go to school in Polson. I have attended both the high school and the middle school. The school system is not a great place to be unless you are highly independent. There is little to do in the town, and almost everything is closed on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday- so more than half of the week. The people you meet will either be very friendly or awful. There are a few good places to eat, but they are often closed. If you're looking for a night out, your only options are the two or three bars fill with drunk old men. There are a few parks, but you have to know which one is right for what you're looking for at the time. Riverside is overcrowded in the summer, Sacajawea is good but small with little beach and very shady, City Docks is always covered in goose droppings, and botcher is right next to the highway,...

Current Resident: I really love living in Helena, I have lived here all my life and have built a community of people I love and respect here. I currently work in the downtown area so that has a built-in community of the other businesses and people working there. I think that there are still a lot of issues. A major one is the water supply outside of the city limits. Once you are out of the city limits the people living out there rely on private well organizations that are almost entirely draining the aquifer there are ways to prevent this like pumping water from the water treatment center we have and stopping drilling wells. Another issue is the public education system. The schools, especially the high schools, are severely underfunded. I am a part of the theater department and our theater is falling apart. At the sister school, Helena High, their theater's plumbing is bubbling up and ruining their stage and no one is doing anything. I think while Helena is a great place there is a lot of change needed.... Read 160 reviews

Current Resident: I am African, been in Glendive for 2 years now. People are very friendly. It was awkward at first since there are almost no other people as me in this community, everything about my family was different including our english accent. But we were welcomed into the community, we did not face direct racism except for a few times.No lots of job opportunities. I love the Makoshika park and nature sorrounding the city. Not much to do for young adults. Winters can get cold and windy. Will definately miss the city after moving out. Safe place too.... Read 10 reviews

Current Resident: One of a kind mining city. The classic buildings here the best are attribute of the place. Best examples in the state of 1870's-1950's archtecture. The oldest old-timers are great too and easy to get along with, but those younger than about 80 are seriously lacking in appreciation. The leadership at the city has a nasty habit of awarding corrupt demolition contracts to members of their family and senselessly ripping down iconic 1880's buildings in the wee hours of the morning. Still, what's left of Butte is well worth fighting for. If the destruction activists are stopped soon, it will be a great city once again.... Read 158 reviews

City in Montana
Current Resident: My wife and I love living in Billings! It's one of the few cities in Montana where "regular" people may still be able to afford a home, which we were able to do. We have quite a selection of stores and restaurants close to our neighborhood, and even more throughout the city. There's more to do here than in most cities in MT, though if you're coming from a big city, you'll probably miss some amenities. I came from a very small town in MT, so Billings is quite a change for me. There are ample outdoor recreation opportunities in town and even more close to town. We have always felt safe in our neighborhood and in most places around town. Like most cities in America, Billings does have drugs and crime. Unfortunately, that's really not something you can get away from even in Montana. Again though, if you're coming from a big city, Billings is pretty tame. We were able to find great careers here and look forward to our next few years in Billings!... Read 206 reviews

Current Resident: Bozeman is a beautiful place to live and it is truly breath-taking. The mountains are close and it could really take a lifetime to explore all of the trails/natural areas Bozeman has to offer. Skiing is THE main reason to live here, as Bridger Bowl and Big Sky are close and the snow is often great! However, if you are looking for more mental stimulation, creative pursuits, or cultural diversity, you will have to really search for it here. The culture here is very physically oriented and there is definitely pressure to fit in by doing mountain biking, running, skiing, and rock-climbing. Moreover, I think there is only one restaurant in town where I've really enjoyed the food after living here for 2.5 years. There is also a real lack of affordable housing and traffic is often congested. Overall, if you can afford it and you love being physically active outside, this a great place to live!...

The community is great, with lots of opportunities and outdoor recreation! Since covid, however, home prices have skyrocketed. Biden has made food and services expensive for everyone! Better have a fuel efficient home and vehicle! Crime is on the rise and there is fire season! The worst part, IMO, is the extremely low levels in Flathead Lake!
