Now that the initial six months of 2019 have slipped into the rearview mirror, it is a good time to check real estate market statistics to see how we are stacking up thus far against the last two years.
As we look at inventory levels for single family housing throughout the Gallatin Valley, the number of available homes in the Bozeman city limits, rural Bozeman and Manhattan/ Three Forks has fallen (ranging from 12% to 29%) while Belgrade has more units for sale (up 9%). The number of sales decreased in the same areas by 4% to 10% and increased in Belgrade by 12%. However, both average and median sales prices are up in all of those same markets. |  | | | Grand Opening of Story Mill Community Park | The Trust for Public Land and City of Bozeman invite our community to the park's grand opening on Saturday, July 20, 2019 for free, family-friendly activities! Because a Special Town Deserves a Great Park! Story Mill Community Park opens with the collective support of hundreds of resident and community groups working with The Trust for Public Land and City of Bozeman. Here, restored rivers, abundant birds and wildlife, and a rich historical setting provide a place for all to play, celebrate, and connect to nature and to one another for generations to come. At 60 acres, Story Mill Community Park is the City of Bozeman's largest park featuring ample experiences for exercise on 3-4 miles of trails, a climbing boulder and an adventure playground with treehouses, slides and unique climbing features. For our furry friends, an enclosed dog park provides space to roam and play fetch. Family, friends and neighbors will gather for performances in the park's hillside amphitheater, recreation programs and camps at the community center, picnics and celebrations in several open-air pavilions, and festivals held on the park's grand lawn. The park's award-winning nature sanctuary includes almost a mile of restored river frontage along the East Gallatin for fishing and 15 acres of wetlands to observe birds and other wildlife at home in the park. There is so much to do and to see in Story Mill Community Park – whether you come to spend an hour or an entire day! | |  | | 13345 Bridger Canyon | BOZEMAN, MT
