Program Description
People moving into Montana communities is nothing new, but the recent jump has drawn our attention to this decades long trend. A recent study by MSU researchers shows who is moving to Montana communities, where they are coming from and why they are moving here. Key findings from the research include how many are moving for a job, how many are returning, how many have kids and what do people do in a community once they get there. This study is a replication of the original “Brain Gain” research conducted by Ben Winchester of the University of Minnesota Extension Center for Community Vitality.
