As the fastest growing city of its size in the U.S, it’s no secret that Bozeman is growing. But, the real question is, where is everyone moving to Bozeman from? It can be tricky to dig up data on location migration to Gallatin Valley, but we’ve found some stats you might find interesting.

The IRS is able to report migration trends based on filed tax return addresses over consecutive years. With this reporting, we are able to get a picture of where people are moving to Bozeman from.
