Welcome to the Newto News for March of 2024. My name is Zack Cockfield, and my team and I created Newtomedia as a way for visitors or new residents to get information about a city. Each month we bring together resources that will update you on the history, amenities, culture, future opportunities and all other things inside a city that make it unique. We also hope to be a resource for connecting you with people and businesses that can help you live a better life. If you find our efforts useful, please click on the links to get more information!

Billings, Montana, was founded in 1877 by a group of settlers led by Frederick Billings, a former president of the Northern Pacific Railroad. The city was established as a hub for railway transportation and quickly grew into a bustling center of commerce and industry in the American West. Throughout its history, Billings has played a key role in the development of Montana as a whole. The city’s economy flourished with the discovery of vast coal, oil, and natural gas reserves in the surrounding area, leading to the growth of industries such as mining, refining, and transportation. Over the years, Billings has also become known for its rich cultural heritage, with a vibrant arts scene, historic landmarks, and a strong sense of community pride. Today, the city continues to thrive as a diverse and dynamic urban center, attracting residents and visitors alike with its stunning natural beauty and welcoming atmosphere.
