Where is Montana?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Montana (the 41st<\/sup>\u00a0state that was admitted to the union on November 8, 1889) is located in the Northwestern USA. It is bordered by South Dakota and North Dakota (to the east), Wyoming (to the south), and Idaho (to the west), and three provinces of Canada (Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia) to the north.<\/p>\n

What is the Geography of Montana?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Montana is spread across a total area of 147,040 sq. mi (380,800 sq. km), making it the fourth\u00a0largest state among the 50 US states. The land area is spread across 145,552 sq. mi (376,980 sq. km), the water area is spread across 1,491 sq. mi (3,862 sq. km). Montana is around 559 mi (899.6 km) long from east-to-west and 321 mi (516.6 km) wide from north-to-south.<\/p>\n

The mean elevation of Montana is 3,400 ft (1036.3 m) above sea level. Granite Peak is the highest elevation point in the state at 12,799 ft (3,901.1 m) above sea level, and the Kootenai River is the lowest elevation point at 1,800 ft (548.6 m) above sea level.<\/p>\n

The major peaks and mountains in this state are Granite Peak, Granite Peak-Northwest Peak, Mount Wood, Mount Wood-West Peak, Castle Mountain, Castle Mountain-Northwest Peak, Whitetail Peak, Silver Run Peak, Castle Rock Spire, Silver Run Peak-East Peak, Tempest Mountain, Mount Peal, Castle Rock Mountain, Beartooth Mountain, Bowback Mountain, Mount Villard, Mount Wood-Northwest Peak, Mount Hague, Glacier Peak, and Mont Villard-West Peak. All of these peaks belong to the Beartooth Mountain range.<\/p>\n

One per cent of the total area is occupied by the water bodies. The longest rivers in Montana are the Missouri River, Milk River, Yellowstone River, Kootenai River, Bighorn River, Powder River, Clark Fork, Musselshell River, Tongue River, and the \u00a0Frenchman River. The major lakes in the state are Fort Peck Lake, Lake Koocanusa, Hungry Horse Reservoir, Canyon Ferry Lake, Flathead Lake, Hebgen Lake, Bowman Lake, Swan Lake, Ennis Lake, Mystic Lake, and Echo Lake.<\/p>\n

Montana has a significant geographical, topographical, and altitudinal diversity. In general, the landforms can be divided into two parts: Eastern Montana (covering 3\/5th<\/sup>\u00a0of the state, mainly consisting of the Great Plains) and Western Montana (covering 2\/5th<\/sup>\u00a0of the state, mainly consisting of the Rocky Mountain Region).<\/p>\n

The Great Plains consist of high, gently rolling landform that is interrupted by hills as well as broad river valleys. The badlands are found in southeast Montana, which is characterized by columns of varied colors (yellow, red, white, and brown) natural stones.<\/p>\n

Western Montana consists of flat and grassy valleys. Trees such as pine, spruce, fir, and other evergreen plants cover the Rocky Mountain Region. The northern valleys (1-5 miles or 1.6-8 km wide) are narrower than the southern valleys (30-40 miles or 48.3-64.4 km wide). Clear, cold lakes are characteristic features of the Montana Rocky Mountains.<\/p>\n

The Continental Divide passes through the Rocky Mountain Region in Montana. It separates waters that flow into the Pacific Ocean (to the west) and the Atlantic Ocean (to the east). The Missouri River system drains into the Gulf of Mexico, Columbia River system to the Pacific Ocean and three rivers (St. Marys, Bellys, and Waterton Rivers) to Hudson Bay.<\/p>\n

What is the Climate of Montana?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Montana has a varied climate, thanks to the vast variation in landform, altitude, and geography. A semiarid, continental climate is found in the eastern part of the state.<\/p>\n

The Continental Divide affects the climate considerably. The western side of the continental divide gets a modified northern Pacific Coast climate, which is characterized by cooler summers and milder winters. This area gets a longer growing season as well as less wind. During the winter season, the valleys in the western part of the divide get low clouds and fogs. This phenomenon is generally not found in the east.<\/p>\n

While daytime average temperature revolves around 28 \u00b0F (\u22122.2 \u00b0C) in January, it remains 84.5 \u00b0F (29.2 \u00b0C) in July. Mountainous regions in the west and central parts of the state get snowfall in all months of the year. In the months of July and August, snowfall is rare in these areas.<\/p>\n

Cold continental air coming from Canada usually brings cold spells in winter. It causes a significant drop in temperature within a period of 24-hours. Air flows from the southwest at a steady pace of 25-50 mph (40-80 km\/h), which are called \u201cChinooks.\u201d They can warm up some parts (especially east of the mountains in the state) and increase temperature up to 50-60 \u00b0F (10.0-15.6 \u00b0C) for ten days or more.<\/p>\n

The yearly average precipitation level revolves around 15 inches (380\u00a0mm). Western Montana receives significantly more precipitation than the east. While the average precipitation level is around 34.70 inches (881\u00a0mm) in the west, the same in the eastern valleys is around 11-11.45 inches (279-291 mm). The mountainous areas receive more than 100 inches (2,500\u00a0mm) of precipitation. Heavy snowfall takes place during September-May with the heaviest being during November-March.<\/p>\n

What is the Economy of Montana?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The economy of Montana is dependent mainly upon services, agriculture, energy production, mining, and forestry. Around 1\/3rd<\/sup>\u00a0of the total workforce in the state is employed in the service sector. The two most important industries in Montana that have become important are outdoor recreation and high-technology industries.<\/p>\n

Some of the biggest cattle ranches are present in Montana and the most important livestock product is beef. Around 1\/3rd<\/sup>\u00a0of the total agricultural income of the state comes from crop production. The most important crops produced are wheat, barley, hay, sugar beets, potatoes, beans, and fruits (such as black cherries).<\/p>\n

The total Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for Montana in 2018 was US$50,326.6 million (a steady and significant increase from US$36,862.5 in 2008). The Per Capita Personal Income in the state dropped from US$35,253 to US$34,260 during 2008-2009 (especially because of the recessionary pull-downs). However, it has increased steadily over the years to reach US$47,538 in 2018.<\/p>\n

Unlike many other states with frequent ups and downs, the Median Household Income in Montana has performed in a much steadier manner. During the 2007 recession, it fell from US$43,655 in 2007 to US$40,437 in 2009 and stagnated till 2011 (US$40,277). It started increasing in 2011 to reach US$57,679 in 2018.<\/p>\n

The total value of exports and imports in 2018 was US$1,666,403,163 and US$4,692,715,002 respectively, resulting in a trade balance of -US$3,026,311,839. In terms of the total value of exports, imports, and trade balance, Montana\u2019s ranking in 2018 was 47, 40, and 21 respectively.<\/p>\n

The major items exported are Oil and Mineral Fuels, Tobacco, Inorganic Chemicals, Industrial Machinery, Natural Minerals and Stone, Precision Instruments, Vegetables, Pharmaceuticals, Motor Vehicles and Parts, and Live Animals. The major import items are Oil and Mineral Fuels, Precious Stones and Metals, Industrial Machinery, Wood, Electrical Machinery, Fertilizers, Motor Vehicles and Parts, Iron and Steel Articles and Organic Chemicals.<\/p>\n

Montana\u2019s economy had witnessed faster and stronger economic recovery during the 2007 recession than many other US states.<\/p>\n

During the recession, the unemployment rate in the state more than doubled in three years. It increased from 3% in March 2007 to 7.4% in March 2010. The unemployment rate stagnated at that level for one year (until March 2011). After that, it started dropping rapidly and almost halved in 4-years (reached 4.1% in April 2015). Since then the unemployment rate has come down to 3.4% in November 2019 (marginally lower than national US average of 3.5%).<\/p>\n

The poverty rate in Montana was 12.5% (127,777 people lived below the poverty line out of the total population of 1,024,513) in 2018. The rate of poverty is more severe among the Native Americans (34%), Asian Americans (19.6%), and Latino population (17.6%) than whites (10.6%) and African Americans (12.7%).<\/p>\n
