Hamilton, Montana
Seniors who enjoy being outdoors, independent, and active would enjoy living their lives in Hamilton, where stunning scenery is a constant backdrop. Hamilton has many wide-open spaces and a rural, small town feel with an enthusiastic community atmosphere.
But if you miss the skyscrapers, don’t worry! The amenities of a bigger city are available in nearby Missoula, just about an hour’s drive away. Fewer than 4,000 residents live in Hamilton, surrounded by small farms, ranches, and many orchards.
This historic town boasts the Ravalli County Museum, set in the original 1900 county courthouse and listed on the National Register of Historic Buildings.
The Bitterroot College University of Montana is located in town, and spoiler alert: Andrew Carnegie built the public library. Several retirement homes are also available in this small town, and there’s a local hospital and various healthcare providers.
