The only town I saw in that area in my 5 second search is Jordan, with a population of ~~357~~ 356.

Edit: corrected population, my bad

So the only town you saw in the United States in a 5-second search with a bus system is some random town named Jordan with 356 people? I am so confused by your comment I think you meant to reply to somebody else but I can guarantee there's more than that one town in the United States with a much higher population base that have bus trains and even large transit systems. The area that I live in has a massive transit system the spans the size of many states.

And if you think the largest town in Montana is a town called Jordan. You did a really really bad surge and you need a new search engine. Billings, Missoula, Great falls,  Bozeman, Helena, etc all have large population bases and all have bus transit systems. There are several others that also have a transit systems and are larger than that.

I think they meant towns within the area highlighted in the initial image. Which would make sense, 'cause Jordan is in that area, is probably the largest incorporated community in that area, and definitely doesn't have a bus system.

(Also, I know you meant Great Falls and not Great Colt, but it's a funny typo)

Yea great falls. He didn't say that are, he said, you aren't getting anywhere in Montana without a car, so yea.
