Californians selling their 3/2 ranch for $2,000,000 and moving to Montana, Idaho, Arizona, Colorado, Texas, Georgia, Tennessee or any other red or formally red state and pricing locals out of the market either via sale prices or raising tax values.

Ooh, finding work is the hard part.  That's why a lot of the residents in Bozeman are priced out--the only jobs available are tourism and service.

Californian buys the house Nextdoor for four times what it sold for ten years ago. Repeat the process five or six times on your street and now what was $100k house is a $400k dollar house. Somebody born and raised in that community making a salary appropriate to area now cannot afford to purchase or rent a home there. Somebody who already owned a home there can’t keep up with rising property tax values and is forced to sell.

I dropped my daughter off at the Bozeman airport not that long ago.  It was the first time I'd spent more than a few minutes in the town in 2 years and I was amazed how much had changed in just that short of a period of time.  That city is crazy.

The biggest factor I see is being within about 2 hrs of an airport with commercial flights. Wealthy folks don’t want to deal with a vacation house they can’t get to easily, or live in an area where it’s overly difficult to jet to NY or LA.

All the areas I’m comsidering are a major PITA to get to. I’m praying it stays that way for next 10 years.

You won’t find many people who despise Californians more than me, but…the ones who move (in droves) to horse country here in my area are, for the most part, conservatives and ashamed of their former state’s politics.  I always tell them (my new clients) “You don’t have to tell me where you came from.  When you look at the ground when I ask, it answers my question. Just remember what made your state so ‘great’ and don’t vote to ruin mine”.

To my knowledge, I haven’t lost a client yet by saying that. Most of them really do want to fit in.  But I don’t think that’s the norm in CO, MT, ID, AZ, etc.

Sad but true. Like I said, WY residency and not next to a sprawling suburban liberal shithole I’ll be pretty happy. The wind and cold and nothing will make me happy knowing who it keeps away.

Build your own in the west is north of $$$350ft2.
Further from “town” is pushing 400-450.

Horse prices in the rest of the west are stupid as a result. $60k for a busted down “ranch” horse. LOL.

2 year old rope prospects are starting at about $50K here.  Cutters at $100K.  

Could probably buy a house in downtown Bozeman for what a busted down ranch horse would bring.

I don't know.  Our neighbors managed it within the last two years.
