Ahead of myself with move (Helena, Montana City: hospital, moving to, hunting)

[Kwelch618]

LOL Okay My Husband & I are looking to move to Montana in a few years, yes I know getting ahead of myself but I'd rather research it for awhile before moving to a town I wouldn't like.

Requirements would be a rural area, he wants to be able to go hunting & fishing without having to drive forever, plus living without alot of people around would be awesome. We live in Dallas, Texas now which is to crowded for our liking. I would also like to know if there is such a place that also happens to be within a hour drive or so to a VA hospital.

So I hope someone can help me out here or give me some ideas, Thanks

I guess the main V.A. hospital is in Helena with a few satellite clinics scattered around the state.

Yup, the main VA hospital is in Helena. I like all of the small towns south of town, such as Montana City, Jefferson City, and Boulder. Also like Avon and Elliston west of town but getting over the pass into Helena would be a pain in the winter. Townsend is another small town close to Helena but the scenery around there is awfully yellow/brown since the climate is so dry in that valley. But then again, you might like a dry climate since you won't have to shovel snow very often in Townsend (as opposed to the other towns mentioned which get a ton of snow).
