Baker is a small city in Fallon County, Montana, home to over 1800 residents. The town is along the Transcontinental Railroad on Milwaukee Road. Baker gets its name from the road’s engineer, A.G. Baker.
The town is next to Lake Baker, along U.S. Route 12, near the edge of the oil fields. It is also right next to the North Dakota border. Once considered a bustling city in the 1960s and 70s, a tornado ravaged the town in 2014.
The population slowly started declining after the 1980s but has recently increased by 6% over the last few years. Baker is a safe place to live and raise a family amongst beautiful landscapes.
The best time to visit Baker is in June and July when the average temperature is 73° Fahrenheit. If you come during the winter, expect snow, wind, and moderate temps around 40°.
