Bozeman has Montana State University nearby, which attracts students for similar reasons that Boise State does - outdoor environment, good education at a decent price (compared to University of Washington, U of Oregon, Boulder, etc.) in addition to other strong  drivers such as a burgeoning tech industry, low vacancy rates (sub 3.00% market wide on CoStar - probably lower on smaller 4-20 unit deals), and limited concessions on new leases.

I provide that, plus a place to cook and do laundry in an environment that looks like Hugh Hefner decorated it.

This is my first step into a new environment and I am ready for the challenge!
