Bozeman, Montana

Bozeman, MT is one of the nation's fastest-growing small communities. Due to the economic boom and low cost of living compared to major tech-oriented cities, Bozeman has become an attractive alternative to Seattle, New York, and San Francisco for younger couples looking to explore the outdoors.

A historic cow and college town, Bozeman's demographics have changed substantially since the mid 1980s. Costs of living are at a statewide high and aren't expected to decrease anytime soon. Montana State University provides a significant boost to the town's economic output, offering a young workforce, popular athletic competitions, and education for an incoming professional class of Montanans and out-of-staters alike.

With just under 50,000 residents, Bozeman's future is as bright as ever. As newcomers flock to the serene landscapes of the Bridger Range and the Madison, Gallatin, and Yellowstone rivers, the city strains with growth, but welcomes both longtime Montanans and new residents with a friendly approach.
