Eastern Montana
This area is east of the divide and not the fancy Southwest part. Helena is in this region, and the people are all over the place, a mix of Southwest, Eastern, and Western Montana. The farther east you go, the more you feel like you're in North Dakota, and everyone acts like they're from the Midwest and don't know what a divide is.
'Eastern Montana is where the Midwest meets Montana, and no one is happy about it.'
'I told my mom I was moving to Eastern Montana, and she said, 'That sounds like a bad idea, you're just going to be stuck between two places that don't like each other.'
'Living in Eastern Montana is like being in a family that doesn't get along, but you still have to be there.'
