Bozeman provides a truly unique lifestyle. Our population is highly educated, but often earning lower wages than the national median. Commerce in Bozeman is booming, but per household income is below the national median.

Interestingly enough, Bozeman’s median resident age is 25.4 years*, as opposed to the national median,  35.3*. On average, Bozeman residents have fewer dependants than the national median, and fewer retiree’s than the national median. Why? Over 94% of our population in 2000 had a high school diploma*. 49.5% have a bachelors degree or higher*. Nationally, 80% of the population has a high school diploma* and a negligible 24.4%* have a bachelors degree or higher.

How do these numbers help define Bozeman? A highly educated, underpaid work force. Bozeman is still heavily impacted by the agriculture of outlying areas. But our primary currency is education. With many tech companies, Montana State University, and independent entrepreneurs, our community boasts a plethora of philanthropic non-profit’s or small companies. Our work force consists of professional’s: realtor’s, lawyers, doctors, architects, investment brokers, bankers, think tankers, and the like.

Many of our residents move to Bozeman for the lifestyle. Often, our professionals are still employed by a company headquartered in New York, Los Angeles or other global marketplace. They thrive in Bozeman as editors, writers, publishers or other professionals that can operate remotely from their beautiful home, boasting breathtaking views. Our workforce is often well traveled, and experienced. The choice to move to Bozeman was theirs.
