Helena resident Denise Grissom shares what she loves about her city.

 

Small town feel

A connected community

We have lived in Helena for over 20 years and one of my favorite things is how the city has grown, but still maintains its small town feel.

Shop local ‘til you drop

The variety of small businesses

I am a small business owner/realtor and I appreciate and know how important it is to support the small businesses in our city, specifically the beautiful area of Old Town. These owners are all neighbors.

 

Fun events for all

No shortage of city events for the whole family

Another great thing about Helena is our many activities at the Helena Amphitheater from the Buck Creek Festival to free concert series to Helena Market Days. It’s a great time to hang out and visit with your fellow Helena residents.

Home sweet home

Excellent houses and neighborhoods

I love the variety of housing in Helena. We have everything from horse farms with land to historic homes and newer modern vibes. There is something for every taste.
