Why would you want Montana to change so dramatically?
A couple of years ago there was a bar fight in Helena (?) and a man stepped in to stop it.
He got punched for his trouble, but he still managed to put the guy on the floor, and held him there until the police showed up.
The guy who broke up the fight?
The state AG.
He wouldn’t press charges and went back to drinking when it was over.
That world is going to get wiped out by transplants, eating heirloom arugula.
The team filming the Horse Whisperer in Montana was so taken with the local that was their technical advisor, that they offered him the part that eventually went to Chris Cooper.
He thought about it, and said, no.
He didn’t have a social security number, and didn’t pay taxes. And he wasn’t going to give that up for a movie role.

It happened here. My hope is the population drops by 50% in AK.
Ruining the state.

isolating, lonely, cold
That’s so weird for me. Montana doesn’t feel lonely at all to me. I feel more connected there than I did in NYC.

I thought the winters would keep them away? Alaska can be a hard place to live

Coastal communities in Southeast are mild and are overrun with them.
The interior is totally different.

I know of one typical millennial that attempted a move there and couldn't get out of there fast enough. She said it was too isolating, lonely, cold, etc. And this was in freaking Missoula
ETA: Missoula is one of my favorite cities

I do make a distinction between southerners moving in, and coastal people. Be it Californians, or Yankees.
Southern culture isn’t all that different from mountain culture. And we put an emphasis on leaving people alone, in order to get along.
