Rent in Billings getting crazy

Hi all, I'm retired and The unemployment rate is 2.3%, which is pretty low. It's a a mid-size city city with about 118K people. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The city has invested a lot in new development. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The weather takes some getting used to. The city has invested a lot in new development. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.

We moved here with our family and it was the best decision I ever made. Schools in Old Town area are excellent. Kids love it here.

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are pretty good, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.
