Is Fort Benton walkable?

Curious what people think. Crime rate is something to consider -Fort Benton sits at 135.3 per 100K.

If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. I genuinely enjoy living here. Internet is pretty good in most areas.

Weather-wise, the summers are hit or miss and winters are affordable. You get used to it after the first year.

The food scene here is challenging. Tons of great Italian places. I'm still on the fence after all this time.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a nurse who relocated here from Salt Lake City about 12 years ago. The main reasons were cost of living and my partner's job.

Pros I've experienced:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Active local events and festivals
- Diverse dining options

Cons that are real:
- Bugs and humidity in summer
- Far from beaches/mountains

Financially, we've found it pretty good compared to where we came from. If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. Groceries are affordable, gas is tough.

Socially, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Hope this helps!.
