Living in Missoula, MT

If you dream of diving into the wilderness but would prefer not to be completely isolated, then Missoula may be the place for you. This small town is the second-largest city in Montana and offers the perfect balance of urban flavors mixed with a love of the great outdoors. The bustling downtown area is home to a thriving dining and brewing scene, emphasizing the farm-to-table movement. But with mountains at your doorstep, it is easy to escape into nature as long as you can bear with the long, harsh, snowy winters. The cost of living in Missoula is significantly higher than the rest of Montana, primarily due to the cost of housing. Still, Missoula is a great renting option for people of all ages, especially families and students enrolled at the University of Montana.

Renting in Missoula, MT

Most people living in Missoula are renters. The city offers a broad mix of housing styles, from historic buildings and single-family homes to newer apartment-style communities and condos. The downtown area, which concentrates a large part of the activity, is the most exciting place to live, though renting here comes at a premium. Apartment communities such as Emma Dickinson Orchard Homes or Westside are among the more affordable neighborhoods. Montana does not state a maximum amount that landlords may collect from their renters. However, landlords typically require a deposit that’s equivalent to one to two months’ rent. This amount must be returned to the renter within ten days of the end of the lease agreement if nothing is being deducted, or 30 days otherwise.
