About Missoula[edit | edit source]
Missoula is a city in the U.S. state of Montana and is the county seat of Missoula County. It is located along the Clark Fork River near its confluences with the Bitterroot and Blackfoot Rivers in western Montana and at the convergence of five mountain ranges, thus is often described as the "hub of five valleys". In 2014, the United States Census Bureau estimated the city's population at 69,821 and the population of the Missoula Metropolitan Area at 112,684. In the 1990s, Missoula overtook Great Falls as Montana's second‑largest city, behind Billings. Missoula is home to the University of Montana, a public research university. W
