None, actually.

Not one single Montana city or town made the Top 50. While some folks might be disappointed to hear this, especially in the business and retail industries in the state, many will be pleased that we didn't make the list.

Well, because every time we do well in one of these lists, or there is some popular television show highlighting the beauty of the state, people decide that Montana is where they want to be and many Montanans are fed up with it. So, for those who feel the state is "full", rejoice. This is good news.
