Gallatin County Housing Dashboard
Welcome to the Gallatin County Housing Dashboard, an initiative of the Regional Housing Coalition.
This public snapshot brings together recent local data shared by Regional Housing Coalition members, highlighting housing production and preservation, homelessness trends, and a county-wide view of the work underway to address housing challenges in Gallatin County.
People experiencing homelessness
Down 25% from 523 in 2025
The first decline in homelessness the coalition has recorded.
392 affordable homes were completed in 2025—more than double any other year in Gallatin County's history. And after three years of increases, the number of people experiencing homelessness in the region decreased in 2026. Providers point to more homes, more shelter, and stronger coordination between partners.
What is this count?
Annual homelessness count, 2023–2026
Each figure is the most recent year reported by Regional Housing Coalition members. Arrows compare against the prior reporting year. Housing figures run through 2025; the homelessness count runs through January 2026.
Affordable housing production
2025 was the biggest year in affordable housing production in Gallatin County's history.
Gallatin County needs affordable housing, and our region is responding. More than 900 affordable homes have been completed since 2020, and more than 2,000 are on the way.

Running total since 2020
Cumulative affordable homes completed since 2020
2020 saw almost no new affordable construction; that year's activity was the Darlinton Manor rehabilitation, which counts as preservation rather than new supply.
Homes in the development pipeline, by income level served
Affordable homes in the pipeline, 2024 compared with 2025
The top band reads “80% AMI and above” because several projects now serve ranges reaching past 120%, which the coalition's earlier four bands did not cover.

Addressing homelessness
Three things happened, in this order.
Demand for shelter rose. The region’s response grew to meet it. And in January 2026, for the first time since the coalition began tracking, the count fell.

County-wide view
Where affordable housing is located.
Affordable housing across Gallatin County, from Belgrade to West Yellowstone. Larger circles mean more affordable homes. Select any project for details.
Why these totals differ from the Housing tab. The map shows only projects with a known location, and groups newly completed and preserved homes together. The Housing tab counts every project, mapped or not, and reports new construction and preservation separately.
