Poplar welcomes you with open horizons, a deep sense of heritage, and day-to-day convenience that makes small-town living feel connected. As a key community on the Fort Peck Indian Reservation, it’s home to the headquarters of the Fort Peck Assiniboine & Sioux Tribes, where culture, governance, and community services shape local life. Federal services are close at hand through the Bureau of Indian Affairs’ Fort Peck Agency, and county resources are readily accessible in Roosevelt County.
Families appreciate a school scene grounded in tradition and forward momentum. Poplar’s students benefit from cultural programming and access to regional higher education through Fort Peck Community College, while the college’s James E. Shanley Tribal Library supports learners of all ages with research tools, technology, and community events. Health needs are covered by Northeast Montana Health Services, which operates local hospital and clinic services to keep care close to home.
Outdoors, your options range from quiet evenings along the Poplar River to big-weekend adventures at the Missouri River country, including wildlife viewing and expansive prairie views at the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge. Everyday essentials and additional retail are a short drive away in Wolf Point, while local events and powwows add color to the calendar year-round.
