What is it like to retire in Bozeman, Montana? 

 

According to Time, US News, Top Retirements and Market Watch, among others, Bozeman, Montana is one of the best places in the nation to spend your retirement years.

 

For Dave a retired architect, moving to Montana was a major decision after spending his entire life living just outside Chicago. But it wasn’t a hard one. While one might expect that transition to be difficult, Dave was surprised to find that it was in fact the opposite. His days quickly changed from traffic jams and smog to fresh air and freedom. Initially he was stunned at the friendliness of all the people he encountered. “From the mail man to the neighbors to the man I met at the gas station, everyone has been welcoming, kind and inviting. I feel like I’m part of a real community.”

 

Situated among the Bridger, Tobacco Root, Madison and Gallatin mountain ranges, Bozeman is a classic Montana town with a colorful history that is still evident today with close to 50 downtown buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places. But this is no sleepy Montana town.  Home to Montana State University, Bozeman has a college-town atmosphere that is balanced with a flourishing tech industry, active lifestyle and vibrant arts & culture scene.....CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING

The experience that you describe above is similar to what many feel when they move here to Big Canoe, Georgia, especially when they move from a big city like Atlanta. It is so peaceful here and a lot of traffic in Big Canoe involves having four cars on the road at one time! And the people here are so friendly. We do have less snow than Bozeman, but the mountains in both spots are beautiful! Bozeman or Big Canoe...we are fortunate to be able to live in either of these places!
