About Helena West Side

Helena West Side sits along the foothills directly west of Montana's capital, offering a scenic setting with plenty of elbow room close to the city. Following the Tenmile Creek valley along Highway 12, the area features winding roads, mountain views, and quick access west toward the Continental Divide. Because it borders the city limits, residents enjoy a quiet neighborhood atmosphere while keeping downtown shops, state offices, and local restaurants just a short drive away.

The community offers a comfortable blend of neighborhood convenience and open space, often featuring larger home lots and easy access to nearby trails around Mount Helena. Families fall within the Helena Public Schools system, with students attending local elementary schools and Helena High School. It is an appealing option for outdoor enthusiasts and daily commuters looking for mountain scenery right on the edge of town.
