Working remotely from Missoula

Household incomes average around $65,329 in Missoula. It's a a smaller city city with about 75,600 people. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Anyone in a similar situation? Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.

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

I'm a HR manager who relocated here from Raleigh about 12 years ago. The main reasons were family and quality of life.

Pros I've experienced:
- Active local events and festivals
- Affordable housing options
- Strong sense of community

Cons that are real:
- Nightlife is limited
- Limited shopping options

Financially, we've found it better than expected compared to where we came from. Older homes are where the value is. Groceries are competitive, gas is surprisingly good.

Socially, there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. No regrets on my end..

Weather-wise, the summers are surprisingly good and winters are affordable. You get used to it after the first year.

I'm a physical therapist and I've found I love the pace of life here. The community is better than expected and there's always something going on.
