Our Take

Glendive offers decent schools and a low cost of living, but walkability and amenities are very limited. You’ll need a car and expect long commutes and sparse dining options. If you’re okay with isolation and want a tight‑knit, affordable small town, it could work, but many practical downsides may outweigh the benefits.
