Housing in Carbon County
Almost half of renters in the United States pay 1/3 or more of their monthly income for rent (third column above). Compare that with rent in Carbon County and Montana in the first two columns. The optimal rent to household income ratio is 25% to 28% or less. When you pay more than 30% of your income towards rent, your ability to pay for food, transportation, health care, education, and savings becomes increasingly difficult.

Red Lodge: A Mountain Paradise
Originally the Crow Indians considered this a sacred place for worship and hunting. The town of Red Lodge, Montana was established in 1884, then the the Rocky Fork Coal Company opened its mine here in 1887 which caused the town to boom, attracting immigrants from Europe.
The coal boom declined with the Great Depression followed by a tragic mine disaster in 1943. The town shifted towards tourism and agriculture and now serves as host to recreational enthusiasts and travelers visiting Yellowstone National Park.
