Philipsburg, Montana launches effort to attract more residents – teleworkers
Visitors to Philipsburg http://philipsburgmt.com/ already know about the sapphires, candy shop and world-class fly fishing that have ingrained "P-burging" in the Montana tourism scene.
But few outside of town know about the hospital, remodeled schools and inviting community that make for an unbeatable place to live, according to locals.
The Philipsburg Rotary Club http://www.philipsburgrotary.org/ is spreading the word with a year-long campaign geared toward young families looking to raise their children in a small, friendly environment.
With a population of 820 — down from 940 in 2000 — the historic 19th century mining camp hopes to attract a new wave of pioneers for the 21st century economy, including dot-com and remote workers.
