Treasure
7.2
High score (8-10)
Treasure County's position on the Yellowstone River provides access to the river's fishing, and the county's extreme smallness and quiet make it genuinely off-grid in a way that some people specifically seek out.
Mid score (6-8) · Your profile
Hysham (pop. ~200) is the county seat of Treasure County (pop. ~700), one of the smallest counties in Montana by population. The county is on I-94 between Billings and Miles City, which means it's accessible but not a destination. The Yellowstone River provides fishing access. The community is entirely agricultural and institutional social infrastructure doesn't exist here. Billings is 80 miles west.
Lower score (below 6)
Treasure County has 700 people in 984 square miles and Hysham has 200 of them. There is no social scene, no nightlife, no tourism draw, no reason for an outsider to be here beyond passing through on I-94. The community is so small that it functions more like a neighborhood than a county. If you stop for gas in Hysham you've experienced what Treasure County has to offer an outsider.
