      @@lifeinbozemanmt yeah but that back then it was because it was a pricier area compared to the rest of Montana. NOW it legit is because of all the rich Californians moving here. Average cost for a home in 2016 was around 320K - now its a million dollars. Homeless people pouring it camping all over the streets threatening people. Locals are super mean to the crowd causing this.

    Hallie - great job bringing value to your audience. Appreciate your efforts; not everyone is willing to go the extra mile. And, learned something new today: Graupel, also known as soft hail or snow pellets, forms when supercooled water droplets (water droplets below freezing but still in liquid form) freeze onto snowflakes, creating small balls of ice. Graupel is often mistaken for hail but is softer and less dense.

    Tại Bozeman có khu nhà ở hoặc cho thuê giá rẻ dành cho người có thu nhập thấp không vậy bạn? Thời tiết tại đó có khắc nghiệt lắm không? Ở đó có những khó khăn và thuận lợi gì dành cho những người lao động nhập cư có mức thu nhập thấp không? Bạn có biết gì về công ty Karst Stage không? Có thể cho tôi biết thông tin về công ty đó không?Và ở đó có đầy đủ trường học các cấp dành cho trẻ nhỏ từ lớp 1 đến lớp 12 và đại học không?Hệ thống y tế có đảm bảo cho người dân đang sinh sống tại đó không?Người dân ở đó có thân thiện không? Tại đó có những hội hỗ trợ , giúp đỡ cho những người nhập cư gặp khó khăn không bạn? Chân thành cảm ơn bạn đã xem bình luận của mình và trả lời.

      Hi there and thanks for watching! Bozeman is really tough for lower cost housing or low income options, unfortunately. There are typically waiting lists for that sort of thing. The main difficulty I would say besides housing is transportation. Bozeman has a bus system but it’s not always quite right for what people need and things tend to be spread out, and when you add winter roads to that, it can be challenging if you don’t have a car with good tires and all wheel drive. Yes, there are schools for all grade levels that are great, and a wonderful college - Montana State University. People are friendly, indeed! The health system is I would say fairly typical for America - but I wouldn’t say “guaranteed” - there will be costs involved. Let me know if you’d like to talk more, anytime!

    I'm a fourth generation Montanan. Never did I think my wife and I would ever leave Montana let alone Bozeman. However, all the out of state people moving in with their liberal, rude, mindset have ruined Bozeman and Montana. We have our house listed and have already purchased a new home in another State. So sad to see a great place, now ruined.

      @@lifeinbozemanmt Pretty rough is a HUGE understatement - said by someone who I'm guessing is living their happy California lifestyle here? Bringing in the rich out of staters and all the financial norms to the area with them.. Kicking out more and more of the local families that have lived here for generations. Before all this, In 2015, I was on a pretty good path to moving my up to a comfortable middle class income in Montana standards. Homes were $300K avg; higher than other areas but obtainable in Montana standards. And if I kept my path I would be in the position one given some time saving for a down payment. I did get to that level financially in Montana standards a couple years ago but it didn't matter.. Now the average is $1,000,000. If you're not a rich transplant - you're never going to be able to afford a home here. I've lost count of how many life long friends I've seen resentfully have to leave because they can afford the California financial norms. Many of them, including me, really had their hearts set on finally being able to realistically own homes of our own here. Then they continue to privatize land cutting off the fishing and hunting access that had been used by locals for countless years. It's beyond repair at his point. We have no way of trying to go against whats happening. Just sit here and watch as developers and real estate agents rake in what would be considered unheard of amounts of cash to most of us. This continues to ROYALLY piss many of us natives off. So yeah i'd say "Pretty rough" describes it properly lady...
