About Westby

Westby is tucked into the far northeastern corner of Montana, right on the North Dakota border and just a short drive from Saskatchewan. Founded by Danish homesteaders in 1910, this quiet prairie town offers wide-open skies and a tight-knit, welcoming community. The local K-12 school serves as the heart of town, bringing neighbors together for everything from youth events to Mon-Dak Thunder sports games. It is a peaceful, slow-paced spot for anyone looking to settle into traditional rural life along the northern plains.
