Great College Town

Missoula is a very fun town. The people here are some of the friendliest I have met in any of the larger "cities" of Montana. They have a great deal of pride in their university, you see Grizz stuff everywhere, even on Wendy's employees. The downtown area is nice and clean. I don't know what the crime rate is but I feel pretty safe wandering around downtown. Great nightlife. You are also about an hour and a half (give or take) from Flathead Lake, one of the largest lakes in the western US. The only drawback to Missoula is the cost of living. Housing is expensive and there are not many high-paying jobs. Many people describe the town as liberal, but if you are like me you can ignore politics. The traffic can be bad at times but the people seem to know how to drive for the most part.
