Also its in a great location. Close to plenty of lakes, Glacier Nat. Park, even Canada

Most of my income is passive income so I only need to find some part time work really. Hunting and fishing there would be a dream there. I'm sick of having to travel to do those things, I want flathead in my back yard lol

Be a dream*

Construction, mines, railroads offer a lot of jobs

For me concern is local economy that can support kids and grandkids. Settling down for kids to have to move off to thrive is lame.

That being said california white exodus means northwest will be booming in 20 years

Kalispell is a growth area for sure

I guess it depends on what you mean by "thrive". I hope to raise my kids to understand that the chase of material goods will ultimately lead to unhappiness.

Montana welcomes all white California refugees

also the CA exodus is why I kept my WY residency lol

Montana has a lot of small communities that are conservative and value older traditions

One of the biggest issues with American culture is there isn't a lot of unity or loyalty to anything but material greed. Live to be in debt so to speak.

Small towns in the west can very much still have that 'howdy neighbor' vibe to them

A CA suburbanite is an urbanite in MT. This was an unexpected lesson I learned since moving here.

@Ryan-IL get rich still. But with the intention of building our patriotic resistance with your wealth

Heck, a CA ruralite is practically an urbanite here

Yeah we do need money but we should build it into generational wealth that can buy institutional power

I grew up in Kalispell

To big now though

Expensive as well?

I want land!!! A place I can disappear for awhile lol I'm big into survival and bushcrafting. Sounds very hippie when you say Bushcraft out loud
.. lol

It’s alright I guess, no different than anywhere else in the state

Hell whitefish has a lot of nice rural areas.

Heck whitefish

High connectivity will always rule low connectivity. Cities provide that. Maybe you can get around it with internet but remains to be seen.

Cities are terrible liberal incubators.

Whitefish is a liberal colony

Liberal/communist same thing right?

I’m looking at 20 acres for 40k-60k

@Ryan-IL We moved to the Flathead from SoCal four months ago. I advise getting a secure job first. Not a lot of family-supporting jobs out here. Lots of low paying stuff.

Ya the prob w/ the Kalispell area is its a lot of rich people moving there to retire

What kinda job you looking for?

Kalispell is infested with boomer colonists from the coast

I thought I hated liberals enough to give up the arts and culture and cuisine offered by cities. Lol no

Vast majority of my income is passive, I'm very financialy independent. Guess that's why I'm okay with expressing my views so openly, but at the same time I shouldn't have to worry about my family's saftey in doing so..

💢

Especially here in illinois...

Try and get a job at Flathead Brewing

Kalispell’s population needs to drop by about 19500 people before it can be great again

If ya like beer that is
