Hope you have deep pockets if you want to be free in Montana on your own property. Freedom isn’t free or affordable for the average person here.

This is just basic stuff for any state. Every state has unique things. Montana isn’t any different. Not sure why this is anything special. Arkansas is different than Utah which is different than South Carolina.

This video is great and really gives a good perspective to someone moving to Bozeman. I had a job offer in Bozeman and I’m glad I visited in person. I couldn’t find a place that would take our pets (1 GSD + 2 cats), even taking affordability out of context. This place is not worth the hype, it’s beautiful and everything, but the housing situation makes even a 100K salary not attractive. If you like the place, go there a week every year and get out Paying 1800 hundred a month for a 1 bedroom in a 50K town is very much out of reality

How does having ownership of land with mineral claims on them work? Do claim owners lease the mineral rights from the landowner, or the state, or BLM?

I’ve been thinking of moving out west to Montana Idaho or Wyoming for a few years now. Hopefully in the next 18 months to 2 years I’ll make the move. Probably leaning towards Wyoming for the moment.

Prices in Wyoming are better than Montana. The issue is that it’s very windy and barren. If you want practically no people Wyoming might be the place for you however only a million people in Montana in a state 2.5x the size of Florida makes it pretty uninhabited.

Nothing set in stone at the moment. I’d say the one big advantage I’ve seen so far is the state tax. Obviously that can change but you have to look at it that over a 20 year period you can spend an extra $100-200k and the taxes basically pay for it. If everything is equal between properties. I’ll admit that I’ve only been to Wyoming. Spent a week in Bridger National Forrest and loved it. I’m just in the beginning stages of getting information.

The only sure bear spray is a 44 mag (my sure fire backup 😎). Also, yha, you’re going to see deer (at night) at the most inopportune time. Like when you are driving home. Did I mention that since everyone drives fast, you probably will also develop the habit. You can kiss your ride off. Always drive a big pickup for protection from these misshapes 😉. Just keep in mind that if you bring your stupid ideas with you, we pay injunes to do the great northern blizzard dance. The more we are perturbed, the more we pay them. The more we pay them, the colder the blizzard gets. Great northern blizzards are instrumental in weeding out out-of-staters.😱 the key point is blind in, don’t screw the place up.

FYI for anyone wanting to move to Montana: We have no sales tax, but that's made up for by decently high property and income taxes. Car insurance is outrageous because of all of the deer. If you are coming, bring a boatload of cash to pay for it all. OH - and our electricity company has something neat called "premium rate times" which are 7-10am and 5-8pm -- where the rate is jacked up by 4x. Don't think you will live on windmills and solar panels - it's too windy and we're too far north to get any solar benefit. Oh - and make sure to buy a snow blower - by law, you will have to snow blow your sidewalk or get fined. Remember, 6 months of winter in Montana. Aside of all of that, welcome to Montana. lol

There's a reason Bozeman is now called Boz Angeles. The traffic is horrible. Builders squeeze as many homes as possible into subdivided land. More homes = more money. These homes are typically two-story in order to have higher square footage. Higher square footage = higher profits. This means your neighbors peer into your backyard- both from their second-story windows and from their own backyards, which are tiny lots next to yours. For $950,000, you can buy one of these homes and live in an area that looks so much like California that you'd never know you were in Montana. Perhaps you prefer the charm of historic Bozeman and want to be able to walk to downtown. This housing starts at well over $1 million, even the condos. That said, the downtown area is authentically charming. People are friendly. Gallatin Valley is gorgeous. Just have an idea of what you're getting into before you move because, as nice as these numerous "Ten Things About Bozeman"" videos are, the creators are realtors and they want to make money. They aren't your friends.

Agreed. Also, people seem to have no idea about our higher property taxes and insurance rates. Remember people - homeowner's insurance is higher here due to weather damage (snow/wind/hail/etc). Also, there is nothing like getting your car/truck creamed by a hailstorm. Just little things real estate agents "forget" to tell newcomers.

Winters aren't like they used to be years ago. I have a summer mountain home in northwest Montana at high elevation. Totally off grid. My neighbors are the wild life. They are truly natural and non harmful. I don't feed them or try to pet. But we live in the same environment together without problems. It's called respect. I'm probably the only one who doesn't carry a gun. If you are fearful and need a gun, it's not the place for you. Neither am I a hunter. I'm there to be with nature. Not to conquer. Because that NEVER works. I've seen many people come and go over the last 31 years. With all their plans to live off the land and conquer nature. Within a matter of time those people have left. My motto is live and let live. There is traffic in some places of Montana. Real traffic. Not like LA, but there is traffic. I remember when things used to be affordable in Montana. Not anymore. It's changed drastically. There is no industry in Montana. And so don't think you're going to get a good job working for someone. The biggest employer in Montana is Wal-Mart. Now if you can handle that or working for a store at a low wage, you can try it for a while. Look before you leap. Most people going to Montana don't do that. Only to move out after a while. Count the cost and look at all the consequences before making a choice. Because the choices you make today will be your tomorrow, and will have an impact on your life. Choose wisely or you will pay greater consequences.
