Missoula, MT Apartments for Rent

Located where five mountain ranges meet in western Montana, Missoula stretches along the Clark Fork River near where it joins the Bitterroot and Blackfoot rivers. Originally founded as Hellgate Trading Post in 1860, the city has become Montana's second-largest community with more than 78,000 residents. If you're looking for apartments for rent in Missoula, you'll find everything from downtown lofts in converted historic buildings to contemporary apartments in the South Hills and welcoming neighborhoods around the University of Montana campus. With Mount Sentinel and Mount Jumbo defining the skyline, you'll enjoy 400 acres of parks and 22 miles of trails right in town.

Renting in Missoula means getting both outdoor adventures and cultural experiences without breaking the bank. Downtown buzzes with local shops, restaurants, and entertainment spots like the beautifully restored Wilma Theatre, while monthly First Friday art walks and festivals like River City Roots Festival keep things lively year-round. The University of Montana anchors the local job market alongside St. Patrick Hospital and Community Medical Center, helping keep the economy steady. Getting around western Montana is easy thanks to major highways, and you're perfectly positioned for quick trips to ski slopes and wilderness areas. Neighborhoods like Rose Park and the University District offer different rental experiences to match your budget – expect to pay around $1,034 for a studio up to $1,812 for a three-bedroom apartment.
