Sunset Magazine listed our trails as the first on the list of amenities that make Billings a premier community for sustainable living. According to an article in the February 2016 issue of Sunset, Billings is a city that is “easy to love… with a strong sense of community—the gift of making you feel like you belong.”

What is a sustainable community?
Most definitions for the term “sustainable community” refer to a city, town or neighborhood that is well planned and built to provide for long lasting economic and environmental wellbeing. They promote:

- A better quality of life for the whole community without compromising the wellbeing of other communities.
- Healthy ecosystems.
- Effective governance supported by meaningful and broad-based citizen participation.
- Economic security.
Congratulations Billings!
