Montana being featured on these lists isn't the best news for locals. Residents are afraid the newfound popularity of the state will destroy what they love about it. If you’ve lived here long enough, you get it.

Before we reveal the Montana towns that were included on the list, here's six of the most beautiful towns to visit in the Treasure State.

So, which two towns made the "cool" list?

Two Montana Towns Shine on ‘Coolest in America’ List

Out of 24 cities, two in Montana were included on the list of America's coolest cities.

Coming in at #22 on the list is Cooke City. A tiny town with a population of less than 200 in the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness. Cooke City is a haven for backcountry skiers and snowmobilers. Rugged, remote, and beautifully wild. It’s everything a Montana town should be.

Even higher on the list, at #4, is Missoula, affectionately called “Zoo Town” by locals. Missoula is home to the University of Montana. With its riverfront views, craft breweries, and outdoor recreation, it’s no surprise Missoula landed a top spot.
