I want to move to Montana!!!

I want to move to a small town, not too hot or too cold. We don't like too much humidity. Anyone know a nice town you can tell me about? We live in Ca right now, and need a change this summer. Thanks!!!

Hi from Montana... Well, Montana is not always "perfect". It gets plenty hot 90+, plenty cold -20 or more, and plenty dry with drought conditions the last few years and lots of fires! We haven't had much snow for several years, but it can dump plenty of that too. We had our first little blast today in fact (all melted now) So... do some weather research before you make any big decisions! Deb Billings, M

What do you consider too hot, cold or humid? We generally have low humidity, but get extremes of temperature summer and winter. Wages are low, but so is the cost of living compared to CA (I've lived there, too). Also, what do you consider a small town? To me a small town is under 5,000 population.I've lived in 6 different areas in Montana. I raised my kids in a town of around 300 people, but now live in the country just outside Billings, which I consider a larger city at around 100,000 population. We do have drug and alcohol problems just like in the larger areas, and crime and how friendly people are varies from area to area. The economy is better in the western part of the state--eastern part is somewhat depressed in the small towns dependent on agriculture or oil. Cost of housing can be quite high in some of the western cities that have been "discovered".

Hi from Miles city were a small town east of the BIG town of Billings and its more like high can be 105 to as cold as -20 and if you get a good wind it can get -40 t0 -70 wind Chile. I used to go out this cold and fix water wells so its just thing you dress for you get use to it.

thanks for the answers. I guess Montana is out! lol, too cold for me.

I am from Missoula, where 24 inches of snow on christmas eve is not typical but not unusual. population 65,000 also not too big, but not to small (compared to Houston where I am now (4.1 million peoples) I swear, there is no town in the world that has not too hot, not too cold, not too dry, not to humid, and no hurricanes, tornadoes, forest fires, no white outs, no earthquakes and no floods. it just does not exist.

I'm from Great Falls, The Real Windy City. About 80,000 has most the stuff most people want. Like Walmart and a small Mall. We've had really mild winters the past few years. We also have chinooks as well. But I've seen as cold as -45 below. But I don't think I would live any place else. Michael

Me too, Me too! I vacationed in Yellowstone back in 1980. It was georgeous, breathtaking and a place I would love to live in. However upon further investigation I realized, I could not afford to live there based on the wages and heating bills. I probably could not take the crisp cold winter, I'm anemic. But it was a glorious place to be. Makes you realize the definition of "God's Country".
