The Poorest Town In Montana Revealed.

For many, Montana is a place where the wealthy are pitted against the not-so-wealthy.

Over the last decade or so, more and more wealthy folks have been moving to Montana on a permanent or semi-permanent basis. They buy up the land and build big homes, which often results in other wealthy people moving here, which drives up the property taxes so that everyday, average Montanans struggle.

We've chatted about the wealthy towns in Montana. Places like Big Sky, Whitefish, Bozeman, and others have high price tags for those looking to purchase a home, but what about the towns that aren't doing so well? What about those Montana towns where the people are struggling?

Before we reveal which town is the poorest in Montana, let's look at some of the rudest towns in Montana.

Which Montana town has been labeled the poorest?

According to the folks over at US Culture, the poorest town in Montana is Havre. Havre, which is located in the northern part of the state and is nicknamed "the Crown Jewel of the Hi-Line".

Havre has a population of around 10 thousand and is a railroad town. However, like many old railroad towns, it's seen better days.

One of the highlights of Havre is the Wahkpa Chu'gn Buffalo Jump. The Buffalo Jump is over 2000 years old and is one of the best-preserved jumps in the world. It's located right behind the Holiday Village Shopping Center and is available for tours.

According to Realtor, the median home price in Havre is just under 250 thousand dollars, while the median household income is just over 63 thousand dollars a year.

It doesn't seem like those numbers would translate into the poorest town in Montana, but I'm assuming the site US Culture has more information than I do. Either way, if you've never been to Havre, it's certainly worth a trip for the history and Buffalo Jump alone.
