Breaking Down Gillette's Neighborhoods
Even small towns have distinct residential divisions and local cultural differences. Here's a quick rundown on Gillette's six major neighborhoods:
Antelope Valley/Crestview: Has (relatively) established homes and pleasing stability.
Rockypoint/Westona: This is a constantly developing area, so most of the homes are less than 15 years old. You'll find a lot of mobile homes. The average monthly rental rates make it one of the city's most popular places to live.
Echeta Road/Foothills Boulevard: This working neighborhood features a plethora of vacant homes.
Wyodak/Collins Heights: Bordering the city's lone country club, this neighborhood is made up of medium-sized tract homes and is a great place for leisurely strolls, bird watching, and collecting stray golf balls.
Overdale Drive/Clarion Drive: You'll find a mix of townhouses, detached dwellings, and duplexes for rent.
Gillette City Center: Living in the heart of town has its advantages, including proximity to shopping, dining, and a load of local hangouts. The population tends to wax and wane a bit seasonally, but the overall vibe is dynamic and friendly.
Gillette Attractions
By far the biggest draw in Gillette is the CAM-PLEX event facility. Sprawling over 1,100 acres, the complex features a theater, outdoor and covered arenas, event centers, pavilions, RV parks, and even an NHL-sized ice rink. Catch a concert, enjoy a rodeo, marvel at a motorcycle rally, or chomp on some cotton candy at the county fair. The CAM-PLEX is a marvel for a town this size.
