Big Sky Economic Profile

 

This in-depth report highlights emerging opportunities; looks at the current state of business-supporting infrastructure and industries driving growth along with forecasting what Big Sky is poised to become. Big Sky Resort Area District and the Big Sky Chamber of Commerce collaborated on this project to better understand our unique community to determine ways we can better support it within our organizational missions.

 

Over the last decade, we have seen the Big Sky community move from a seasonal community with a transient workforce to a place where individuals desire to sink roots and raise families - but not without its challenges. Drastic population growth, workforce shortages, and unaffordable housing prices have put constraints on who can stay and thrive in Big Sky. We hope that by quantifying these factors and building a discussion around the data, we can drive solutions to support the continued vibrancy of our community.

 

Big Sky has had two recent economic profiles completed, from 2019 and 2022; see those below.   Additionally in 2024,  The Big Sky Chamber released a Cost of Living Analysis (COLI) for Service Workers living in Big Sky and Ennis Montana. This report updates the findings completed in 2022 and compares the cost of living using data from 2023.
