Which Montana town is the fastest growing in the state?
According to U$Culture took a look at the fastest growing towns in each state, when it comes to Montana, which town do you think it would be? The data suggests it's the town of Belgrade.
Belgrade has significantly increased its population over the last few years due to the popularity of Bozeman. With Bozeman real estate prices skyrocketing, many folks started calling Belgrade home. While many in the area aren't fond of the growth, residential construction has taken off and the town is beginning to see more businesses.
How long before Belgrade becomes part of Bozeman?
While it may only be a matter of time, the truth is there is a pretty big distinction between the two towns both socially and politically, however, as people continue to move to the area, the distance between the towns becomes less.
Now with the addition of the Amazon distribution center and more retail construction taking place, there is no reason to think that the growth of Belgrade will slow down anytime soon. Though the growth of the town might not be popular with many locals, it seems to be unavoidable.
